    I can tell you it was "moving" yesterday.  Fishing it today would be tough.  I would guess that overnight temps will start to lock it up again.  Although, you may get in a couple of days before they freeze up.

    Is the Elk ice free, or are there just certain areas that are clear??? I'm wondering about areas like the Legion hole, high trestle and/ or Conrail tubes??? The forecast looks bad for tomorrow, but looks promising for late weekend and early next week.

    Do fish pee?

    Went over rick road and sterretania rd bridges last night, all water was open as far as I could see.  Not sure about the legion hole, im assuming theres ice jams, just dont know how far up.

    The Lord has blessed us all today... It's just that he has been particularly good to me.

    They are open today, but it looks as though ice is forming on the sides again, and there was some decent slush coming down as well.

    Fished Elk and checked out walnut today. Elk was open but full of slush, made things interesting. It was slow fishing today with constant ice in the guides and line freezing up. Managed to land a few though. Walnut is open also with some edge ice. The marina is all locked up, but I doubt it's safe to go out on. After tonight I wouldn't be surprised if it all locks up again. Didn't get out of the 20's today and def. won't tonight. Plus there's a ice storm supposed to be moving through tonight also.
