yes in northern WI.

Kind of peeved as more than one lake I had planned on accessing by boat some spots for deer hunting. With out bringing a spud bar along I jumped up on down at shore and held my weight. Guessing an easy 3" at shore. Way to much to ram with trailer and try and break it up.

Up here in Vilas County we have 4" on the lake outside the cabin. Made some good ice the last few nights. A few guys are out ice fishing today and skipping deer hunting.

We have some ice beginning to form here in NE Indiana but it's gonna be a while till it is fishable... I'll be living vicariously through you all in WI and MN til it's ripe

not enough ice for me on the marsh, 225#'s on maybe 1 inch of ice or watch the packers and drink beer? I watched the pack but did check out a back water off the rock river that was safe for foot travel. next weekend I was going to go hunting but may just hit the ice.
