Better think twice about walking on snow covered ice. Tonight we are expecting to get 2-3 inches of snow fall and I have expert fisherman telling me that if they can't see the ice they don't feel comfortable walking on it. Thickness was reported to be 3 inches near the shallows of Long Island - IL. If you do fish this weekend follow spud marks and take a buddy. Bring safety gear in case you do go through and always remember....If in doubt..don't go out!
