Title: Indian Lake Ice Report - 2/2/2018
Post by: Downthehole on February 02, 2018, 07:05:03 PM
Hi All,

I drove around the lake this evening - here’s what I saw:

- Lake ridge Island/Moundwood to Russell’s Point/Orchard Island has iced over.
- There is open water North of Crystal Beach Island
- Docks close to Moundwood are locked in still.
- Moundwood is iced over up from the bridge to 100yds from the mouth.
- The channel on the other side of the Moundwood Bridge is iced.
- The mouth of Dunn’s pond is iced but no access from Moundwood.
- Areas of the spillway are starting to ice along the bank.
(I fished the spillway for a couple of hours - no bites).
- Russell’s Point/Orchard Island to the West Bank is still locked.
- There is a stretch of open water close to Old Field Island
- Paradise Point is locked still
- Long Island 1st pull off - locked - 1st Pic (5” of ice up to 50yds out)
(There were a couple of guys fishing from 1st pull off)
- Long Island 2nd pull off - locked - 2nd pic (Chisel went through after 2 hits)
- Long Island 3rd pull off (O’Connors side) - no access lots of open water - 3rd Pic
- Long Island 3rd pull off (Pony Island side) - locked 1-1/2” at the bank - 4th Pic
- North Fork - Open to 20yds out from the peninsula you walk around from 2nd pull off

So, the only place that is remotely fishable is 1st pull off. Paradise point area may be fishable however I didn’t check ice thickness.

I am writing off this weekend for fishing. I may go out at 1st pull-off on Sunday however; the rest of the lake is unsafe at this point.

I’ll check things again tomorrow and post results...

Andy
