    I went off the Venango launch yesterday.  Ice where I was fishing at measured with ruler was 3 1/2".  But different places off that launch varied. Everthing I looked at was between 3" and 3 1/2" of ice. There was two guys down towards the outflow of the **** that said ice was 1 1/2". Fishing was slow as I didn't move around at all. Not enough ice for me to do much roaming. Caught a perch and Pumpkin Seed blue gill. Eating size on both. Few other bumps on the lures. Waxworms seemed to work the best for me. At least for yesterday. Only stayed a couple hours.
     Oh and the lake was not making any noise. Indicating that it was not making any ice yesterday and it probably won't today either.

    I went out today. After loading up I talked to two different guys who said they left because water started coming up into their shanties. Walked about 30 yards off the venango launch and found a couple inches of slush and a couple inches of ice. I packed up and left lol not enough for this guy yet haha hopefully next weekend.

    LMAO! Funny dude! I'm stealing those.
     
    Was on the ice Sunday with all 4 kids. They are 7, 6, 5, and 4. Out of the four, 3 of them stepped in holes and got wet feet. One of them broke a brand new rod. They pushed my sled too close to the heater and melted it. 3 of them caught one fish apiece and the fourth one (my 5 year old daughter, Daddy's little fishergirl) caught 6 big gills. Watching her slam the gills made the rest of it worth it.
     
    We had to pull 3 sleds out there just to get all of the equipment out. Walking sucked. With every step, you broke down through into a layer of water that was laying on a foot of good ice. Edges were wet but good. Ice is all safe. Just sloppy. With the weather we are getting this week, all of that slop will freeze up. Wish I could fish with you this week Jake, but I'm working.
