Where's everyone going this weekend if we have safe ice? Once again I'll be scouting out Indian Lake later in the week and will feed back the information. Hope to see you all on the ice very soon!

I may try Indian on Thursday and depending on how I do, possibly Sunday.  Black one-man Shappell flip-over shanty.  Stop by if you see me.  Probably fish @ Long Island.

Tomorrow I'm going to drive by Nimi and do an ice check.  I'll post the results and see what happens.  I'm taking my spud, hand auger and a rod.  But seriously doubt I'll be able to get on safely.  :-\

Hey Slab, I can show you where to go out on a private pond over here, then when you fall in I can get the new Lazer back after we've taken you to the hospital ;D 
Actually that pond was about 50% open after being completely covered for 4 days, ice has floated back up and it appears to be making more quickly.  I can see it from the road and keep an eye on it but don't have permission to check it. Doubt tomorrow will be safe anywhere but certainly have high hopes for later this week. 
Spud one, spud two, if it went through, so will you!

now its getting there, ;D ;D freeze on 8)  im busy next few days but wed I will be checking on some lakes , mog,wing ,....just remember guys around here{akron}  the middle of most waters has been open and the rest had a good start with a clear base, so thickness is going to be really different across a body of water for a while for early ice....
the time you spend fishing cannot be deducted from your life...

Snowcone is right ,I checked a pond today that was 50% ice .I could reach the ice from shore it was 2 plus inches .So in a few days half will be safe and the other half bad .All i can say is SPUD or swim.

The snow we got around Dayton will really screw up the ice. Definitely spud your way out and back. Since it is powder snow, hope to get some wind to blow it off the ice. Still hope to get out somewhere this weekend.
