Ice yet?

I have tomorrow off any one know if the bay has any safe ice yet? The head should be firming up soon.

I doubt the lakes have much ice yet.  We need a week of weather like this, and it would be better minus the wind and snow to make good ice. Everyone is always over anxious. The main parts of lakes are probably still open from the wind. The lakes that got snow probably started to freeze in the wind blocked sections, but that ice is probably now covered with blowing snow, so the ice probably isn't going to get very thick.

Very little open water on lower Walnut today, by tomorrow it will probably be almost completely locked up.

Thank you for the feedback!  Tight lines to you when you are out there!

Planning on making a trip to Erie next weekend.  Does it look like the creeks will be covered in ice?

put the rod's away for a month or so,March is going to be fantastic with the number of fish in the streams.

Hookin Up, Was that you and your buddy I met coming out of the  Sugar Lake boat launch on Sunday. I was the scruffy in the scruffy white Toyota Pickup. Shouldn't be long now! I was going to check today but thought I would save the gas as I have to work till weekend anyway.

Monday Ya come to think of it! It isn't that I forget Mr King, the day off just doesn't register. I have a kindergarden class to sub in West Forest tomorrow, and might take an auger and boots and check Two Mile on the way home. I guess we are in line for another cold snap before the weekend warmup. I'd like to hear a good longer forcast with some more bighting cold, however we will get what we get. So long as it stays in the 20s at night and not over ~ 35 during the day we shouldn't lose any ice.

next week is looking like a thaw possibly boy's!  in the 40's and high 30's next week.
