Big Vehicles Barred From Leech Lake During Eelpout Fest

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Ice conditions are forcing some changes at the upcoming Eelpout Festival in Walker.

The annual festival is scheduled for Feb. 18 to Feb. 21 on Leech Lake.

The Cass County Sheriff's Office says only snowmobiles and ATVs will be allowed on Walker Bay for the event.

They say violators will be ticketed and towed if they ignore the rules.

WCCO will be live at the festival as part of our Goin' To The (Frozen) Lake trips.
