Portage Lakes / Ice Report 12/16/10: Old State Park
« on: December 16, 2010, 03:46:42 PM »
Went on a drive by today. Saw two guys heading out and stopped to talk. They had walked out a little, drilled and measured with a tape... There was 4" there. Ice was a little white, but looked solid. They set up in front of the tree off to the right of the sheriff's boat house on the opposite shore. They said there was 3 1/2 by the tree.

They did NOT go into the middle of the bay nor up the channel so I can't say what the ice is like there.

Maybe by the weekend... I plan on checking again Friday afternoon. I think I will only check Old State Park.

Portage Lakes / Visual Check of Ice 12/14/10

Drove around the lakes today. Still lots of open water at Long and East Reserviors. The ice at North and Old State Park looked a little punky too... Still some snow on top. Looks like it's going to be awhile. The wind isn't allowing ice to form on East or Long, plus they are draining water out of Long, which causes current under the existing ice. Bad news there.

Every year, we all get antsy and catch ice fever, but please remember, safety first. I'd much rather read your fishing reports that your obituary.

Carl "Big Daddy" Bachtel here. Glad to find Ice Fish Ohio and get on the site. Hopefully, we'll be on the ice soon.
I'm a Pro Staffer for Bass Pro Shops/Rossford, OH and also a member of the Microspoons Pro Staff with my son Nick. We love to fish for everything, all times of the year but I really have a passion for hardwater fishing.
I mostly fish NE Ohio lakes, some Lake Erie, and Presque Isle Bay in Erie, PA.
Always looking to share info and will post my trips out if you want to meet on the ice.

More later, I'm sure.


Carl
