I set up my shanty less than 100 feet from where I sit right now which makes it nice. It’s not legal but I could set tip ups out for pike and watch them from the couch.
I think that it’s like....if you’re within 300 feet of your lines...it’s legal in MN.....
I’m not into that sprint to the flag like I was some (many) years ago.....

A few years ago, my son and I were out on our snow mobiles on the lake where a fishing contest was being held in front of a lake front restaurant. Someone had drilled several hundred holes in the ice for the fishermen and when we arrived, water was boiling out of the holes. We decided that it would be a good idea to move on.
