I scouted the lake Monday afternoon and the typical early ice spots had around a 1 - 1 1/4 of ice. Everywhere else was open water. If people are fishing those first ice spots then I would consider it sketchy at best.

Reports of 4 inches at the first pull-off but you must check your own ice to make your own assessment plus the rain this weekend could hurt it.

It's all just starting but if you want early ice info look back to the past years.  Just my opinion.

Good luck and stay safe!

The thing that really sucks about early ice on Indian Lake is PARKING, there are very few spots unless you're lucky enough to know someone who lives on the lake.

The picture that Dave posted is mine. The report is good for the current conditions. Be sure to AVOID BLACKHAWK! The ice adjacent to the main lake is thin, and may not survive the warm-up. The backwater on the north end of the lake at Long Island is solid at this time.
