Title: Ice Conditions
Post by: LeeinOH on January 15, 2014, 07:37:44 PM

Went to Mosquito this afternoon to check the ice.  Good ice in the main body.  Still thawed 4-5' from shore, but skimmed over.  Ice was 4-5" 50 yards from shore.

This was at the East side 305 boat ramp near Lakeside tackle shop.

I'll be on the ice tomorrow afternoon!!!!

Went out from 2-6 pm not far from the first buoy northwest off of the 305 ramp on the East side of the lake.  Caught a few nice perch and a small walleye on a gold VIBE just off of the bottom in 17' of water.

WINDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ice was just fine. 5" but you still have to be careful getting on it from shore.

I havent been to skeeter in a couple of weeks, as I went to Saginaw last weekend and stayed home this weekend to get my sled ready for Erie next weekend but last time I was out it was a solid 6". Im guessing by next weekend it would be close to 9 / 10", Its power auger time for sure for me. Im to old to old to drill through foot thick ice. Lol . Buddys of mine been out with reports of small eyes and decent perch being caught. Good luck

Went off the cemetery before dawn. Snow on the ice made it a difficult walk even with skis on the sled. A few panfish. Then I had to leave.  Ice was 5" about 60 yards out.
