2 Mile Run Ice?
Was wondering if anyone was out around 2 Mile Run (Justice Lake) in Venango county would like to hit it this saturday. I am guessing with this hard cold snap should make 5 inches or so by saturday. But just wondering if anyone had been out there to check it this week.

My son and I went yesterday at 4:00. 1/22/13. The launch end was iced in however by the dam it was spoty. At the launch there was less than 2 inches,and as we walked on the dock and it rocked back and forth the ice cracked all the way across the lake. Never have I seen that happen before as water came out of the crack and melted the snow in a 2 foot streak on the ice across lake. I am sure with the temp it sealed right back up, and withoutthe snow it will probably freeze better at the streak. I would guess the boat launch end would be fishable by the weekend. Does anyone know when they are going to stock. I want to take the grandkids who will have a ball with the easy stockies.

Was out fishing Two Mile today 4in. of good hard ice,I figured there would be more with all the cold weather we had this week. Nobody else in sight, I was in the middle of the lake about 150 yards down, typical day of fishing on that lake, one small gill, but felt good to get out. Where to tomorrow?

Just one week ago that was open water. I'd speculate that may be why no one else has been on it yet.

When I was out I was targeting fish, caught many trout and panfish where I was in the past, so I was up for anything. One small gill is why we nicknamed it THE DEAD SEA !!!

Do guys looking for trout go more to the dam or do they stay shallower. Not looking for specific spots. Just wanting to get an idea

I mainly target trout, alot of guys fish up near the boat lauch were its shallow. Myself I fish down towards the dam. I have setup near the middle of the lake down around the dam and can find the main channel and a few of my friends have caught some nice eyes and I know we had a real nice musky hooked down that way that we lost.

When you fish the deeper water for trout how deep will you usually start at? I've only fished shallow water through the ice for trout
