I don't understand this??? I just fished Twin Lakes Lagoon on 5"+ with the holes still freezing all day! I even tried the main lake by 43 and it was 3" and rock solid 30 yards out!!!! There HAS to be lakes ready to fish!!!

The I've that remains is very sketchy on most area lakes  I would hate the thought of all my gear sinking to the muck bottom and all I get in return is wet and cold,I love ice fishing but I also love my collection of stuff!I can wait until conditions stabilize,even if it's next season!

Yes, one trip isn't worth replacing over $1500 worth of gear.  I'll wait for a good, clear 3 inches.

Fished it last night. (sunday 17th)  Ice was 3 inches with thinner areas all over.  Got out to 9 ft and did ok at dusk.  This ice is different than the last.  Its clear, but filled with air bubbles.  I don't know if it will make it threw the heavy rain and wind thats forecasted for tonight along with the 40 deg. temps.    Some areas we walked over had 1.5 inches.  That was my last trip out.

I think what we've had of an I've season is slipping away,not worth it to me to go out on sketchy I've, fish in 5ft of water and catch 4-5" gills or nothing at times I'd hate to fall through for action like that,I will wait for better Ice conditions and hopefully better fish,I know it still beats work and all that stuff but I think we should start thinking open water conditions.
