Ice Conditions

[LeeinOH]

Went to Mosquito this afternoon to check the ice.  Good ice in the main body.  Still thawed 4-5' from shore, but skimmed over.  Ice was 4-5" 50 yards from shore.

This was at the East side 305 boat ramp near Lakeside tackle shop.

I'll be on the ice tomorrow afternoon!!!!

thanks for the report, its nice having eyes all over the place. skeeter is a good lake,

Went out from 2-6 pm not far from the first buoy northwest off of the 305 ramp on the East side of the lake.  Caught a few nice perch and a small walleye on a gold VIBE just off of the bottom in 17' of water.

WINDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ice was just fine. 5" but you still have to be careful getting on it from shore.

[LeeinOH]

I'll probably be out there in the afternoon.  Not sure if I can go tomorrow or not, but if I do, I'll certainly post results snowcone

I havent been to skeeter in a couple of weeks, as I went to Saginaw last weekend and stayed home this weekend to get my sled ready for Erie next weekend but last time I was out it was a solid 6". Im guessing by next weekend it would be close to 9 / 10", Its power auger time for sure for me. Im to old to old to drill through foot thick ice. Lol . Buddys of mine been out with reports of small eyes and decent perch being caught. Good luck

10" ice NW of causeway bait shop. Fishing was slow.

Thank you i'm stuck home for now waiting on new blades for my ice auger everyone was out of stock had to order them

[ben78]

Fished the south side for a few hours today. Not a nibble, but still 12" of good ice.  A inch of water on top of ice. A few inches water on top near shore.

[kohn261]
