Found the ice has firmed back up....found an area with 3.5 inches and most other areas were about 2 to 2.75 inches. May be able to get onto the lake by Saturday. On the fishing note..I found the big crappies this morning and they were hitting nicely. They never left the marina, just moved and are feeding in a different area. I will probably be out again each morning, watching the lake and checking the ice...and doing some fishing of course.
