I must say I didnt expect to see 4 yes votes. I understand Johnny's vote as he will be in Michigan. I am wondering what lakes the other 3 yes's are from. Looks like I will need a different lake to fish this weekend. I am listening to all suggestions.

Thanks to everyone who took part. I think we can all say if your lake is in Ohio and public it is very unsafe this weekend. I will post the Spencer lake conditions report shortly. For now I am going to clean the house and gain some " wife of an ice fishing junkie" points for next weekend.
It may contain a lot of hard water fishing.

Nimisila 8:45 am Sunday morning: Drove around the entire lake. Nobody on the ice. checked the ice at the West boat launch. NO GOOD

Old State Park 7:45am 3 guys on the ice out from the boat house. Ice is only 3". Nobody near the deeper, channel area. Ice is slushy on top. Not really safe.
