Yep, I was out on a little lake over the weekend myself. Started out on a small lake called Horseshoe a few miles outside Harris, fishing was slow so I packed up and headed over to another lake about a mile away from there, Robour.  Ice was great, average of 6" thick. Hammered the pannies using waxies!  I sure hope this  :snow5: doesn't mess the ice up to bad, sure would have been nice to get the cold that's coming before this snow, but heck, let the  :fishing2: begin! Good luck and stay safe all!

Poppycock! More than enough ice out there! I'll be hitting Horse Shoe, if that's slow I'll hit Robour, that lake is always hot! Might have to take a trip to Green for some of them monster crappies whiteoak speaks of.!  :fishing2:
