    Thank you dvk. I wonder how much of that is black ice? I'm a pretty hefty boy. Last year I went out on 5 inches on Kahle, to find out there were only about 2 inches of good ice and 3 inches of junk. I drilled holes and water came shooting up out. I left. LOL!

    Has anyone been on Kahle lately? I'm thinking about taking my boys out on Sunday and I want to make sure that there is safe ice. Thank you.

    IMO, if I have to ask if there is any safe ice around...it's too early to be thinking about taking my kids out.

    You're probably right. It's just that I haven't been on any ice yet. I don't know if there are four or 8 inches. I haven't heard anything about the ice since that super cold night two days ago. I get what you are saying though. Bogey, you are always the voice of reason. Thank you.

    was out there Saturday.  The place was a zoo.  Fishing was good till about 10 a.m. then slacked off, but it was great being on the ice.   5 to 6 inches of ice.

    We went saturday afternoon,met a guy coming off that had a bunch said they quit around 9 or so.We caught a few, one nice crappie 12-1/2" and a gill 8-1/2" and  6 smaller gills and crappie and a bass 13-1/2".Went today caught the skunk,met the same guy coming off.He caught 5 early in the morning.Was nice to get out after no ice last winter and it was better than being at work.

    I'm gonna fish more and work less.

    I hit Kahle Saturday. We did pretty well with a mixed bag of perch, crappie, and gills. It was nice to scratch the itch!

    How was the ice when u headed up slabdaddy?


    I'm sorry bud. I just now saw this or I would have posted for you. The ice was pretty good with 3-4in of black with 3 inches of white over top.
     
     
    Anyone know how bad of a hit the ice took? None of the ponds around here are opened up, so I can't imagine that Kahle is open. I'm sure that it's not safe though. Anyone look at it this weekend? It probably won't be good for two weeks though. Next week is supposed to be really cold. That's good news.

    I got a report yesterday that there was a some open water on the North end and the shore ice was bad. Hopefully the ice that was left was good black ice and all of the junk melted off. I'm hoping that by next weekend, we will be back on it.

    Thursday it was open water from the Venango launch the whole way to the dam. The Clarion side had open water about 3 ft around the edges. Don't think I'd chance it. Maybe by tomorrow. IDK. I hope someone checks it today.

    Wow, didn't expect that. I figured it would loose some thickness but not open up.
    Have a friend that lives across the street from Sugar lake. I sent him a text this morning asking him if he could see anyone on the lake. He replied that he could see 4 guys. I may head there tomorrow, but I have no idea on thickness.......

    Wasn't there personally but heard from a buddy that the Clarion end has good ice, varies from 4-6" and the shoreline is tight. Venango end from the north launch to the dam just froze over last night  so stay away from that end.
