Creek Icing/Slush?

With the cold weather we've had, to what degee are the creeks iced up along the edges and are the streams filled with slush ice in the morning? Any input would be appreciated.

    I am going out tomorrow morning and will let you know what I see. I am going to try the east side probably 16 or 20 mile.

    I will bet there's no slush in 16 mile creek.

    Ok Wally I was at 20 mile earlier this morning and there was very little slush or ice. I was able to drift my line pretty easily and the only issue I ran into regarding ice were some slippery areas around the streambank. The snow keeps melting and refreezing on the streambanks and it is pretty slippery. I just got home(I live in Erie) and on the way back I stopped at 16 mile and there was also no ice or slush. It is warming up in the Erie area and tomorrow should be slush/ice free.
