Today I’m going to make the first walk out to check ice depths. Most of the ice out past the 150-200 yard has been there since Saturday morning so we’ll see how thick it is.  I’m presuming most of the lake is ice covered, but couldn’t see a Modis Satellite image yesterday due to the cloud cover.  From here the south wind we had in the afternoon did not appear to move the ice.

It will give us a good idea of what’s going to happen and when if it stays cold. It has to be cold to make ice fast and I just don’t see alot of that in the forecast yet.

We are putting the finishing touches on the new office in my restored barn and will have it open for the coming weekend if we do let anglers out on the ice. I’ll know  more after today about that.

Be Safe
