ok so the ice on cj is only 1/2" thick at best maybe an 1".....but reid park has ice thas around 4-5" but you have to goto far end towards the dog park....just make sure you check the ice first...

and the ice is cloudy and doesnt seem very strong so be VERY careful if you go out...would not be a good pond to fall in there is a lot sea wead on the botom and its prob only 5-8' deep in most parts....also the northridge pond has around 3" but no fish were biting and the ice is covered in snow and is cracking....ice at both places is prob very dangerous right now...

At least you got out and were safe about it. You can always count or reid for some baby gills!

I was at marina from about 12-2pm when I drove down I seen 3-4 people and a shanty on the water. They wasnt but 10 -15 ft off the rocks near the rockpile so wasnt too much danger ( did have a rope out) but still I wouldn't want to take a cold bath either!! Ice was making that eerie echoing cracking sound,the one that makes you pucker up!

Caught some gill and crappie but only had 2 keepers lot of small fish bite slowed down so headed home to watch the big game.... Who Dey!
