Title: Ice Reports
Post by: Skillet on November 24, 2010, 09:14:57 AM: Any ice fishermen around here? If so, I thought it would be cool to start an ice report post - if you know for a fact the thickness of the ice on a lake, post it!

I hope to have a post in a couple of days - I may go do some exploring after this hard freeze.

Might have to make the trip this weekend if I can swing it.

I have not been by eloika yet, but I drove by sprague on thanksgiving and it was completly frozen over but still had lots of wet spots. You might be able to get ahold of jerrys landing for a report on eloika
