Omans Creek is a small tributary that flows north into Lake Superior near Little Girls Point in Gogebic County. It's part of the Lake Superior watershed along the south shore, in a stretch where numerous small creeks drain the rugged terrain of the western UP into the big lake.
Lake Superior does not freeze reliably near shore in most winters, and open water conditions persist through much of the season. Omans Creek itself is a small stream that would freeze but isn't a meaningful ice fishing destination. Ice fishing in this area typically happens on smaller inland lakes rather than Superior.

Omans Creek isn't really a lake — it's a small creek in Gogebic County that flows into Lake Superior near Little Girls Point, one of the western Upper Peninsula's most scenic and undervisited stretches of shoreline. The single launch here provides access to Lake Superior itself, and the reviews tell the story: people come for the big lake views, the solitude, and the raw beauty of this remote corner of Michigan. Little Girls Point County Park sits nearby with camping and beach access along Superior's shore.
This is deep UP territory — closer to Ironwood and the Wisconsin border than to most of Michigan. If you're launching here, you're putting in on Superior, so plan accordingly: cold water year-round, weather that changes fast, and very limited services. But the tradeoff is genuine remoteness and some of the most dramatic lakefront scenery in the state.
