Ice Dive near Hennepin Island, Mille lacs 1-25-2014

[DetectorGuy]

Nate and I did an ice dive just East of Hennepin Island in Mille Lacs Lake, on Saturday 1-25-2014. The air temp was -5 degrees and the wind was about 20 MPH. Set up was a cold operation but the 40' visibility under the ice was worth it. The ice thickness was 23" thick. We did not find much here as far as treasures, just a big musky lure. The bottom was mostly sand until we got close to the island and then there were several rocks completely covered with zebra mussels. The wind was so strong that we almost did not use the Phantom helicopter to get aerial footage, but I am glad we did. Here is a 10 minute video of the day showing above and below the ice:
