Probably best to wait until after all the rain from tonight and tomorrow passes to ask that question. Hopefully it survives in many places, but we will see.
There is no such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people who ask questions.

Ice is crap all the way up through crawford county,  I tried to get on yesterday b4 the rain and it would not hold my weight.  I am not even sure that a ladder would help to get on.  The whole lake was crapping out.... The next few days look a little better and next week looks even better but time will only tell... This weekend may not happen though.

Yesterday I checked three lakes I fish and the shorelines are shot.  If we get the all the rain they're asking for you're wasting your time trying to get on, unless you like getting wet.

Do your chores and Valentines duties this weekend.  Watch the Super Bowl, and be ready to fish next weekend.

Next weeks weather is suppose to be cold, and it should give enough time to stabilize the good ice.

The Delaware should be running nice and high this weekend, if you know a good spot where the Walleye get pushed to shore in high water.

I'm gonna hit a trout stream this weekend. The ice here in clearfield county is pretty rough on all the lakes. Way too rough for my comfort anyways.

With the coming cold next week our lakes in the Northeast will bounce back and we'll be back in business by next weekend for sure.  I was talking a few guys that checked some places and most did pretty well with the rain and warm temps.  I checked out four other private places I fish and there was very little water on the ice and only one had a bad shoreline.

Plan on going to Hunters Lake today just to check ice and maybe drop a jig if ice is good. Plan on going to Hunters Lake or Bear Wallow pond  for the day Monday and possibly this weekend as well.
If you think your going to have a bad day you will seldom disappoint yourself!

If you just want to ice fish somewhere this weekend, most of the bigger name lakes are shot, but I've heard some of the Tioga lakes are still good, along with Canoe Creek, and probably a few you'll hear mixed reports on.. As someone whose been in this year, all I can tell ya is just be extremely careful, have your picks ready just in case.

or if ya know where (ie, you scouted it the past few days), ya can ice fish it like JMiser and myself did this morning  ;)

Nice job ski!
What are you going to do,just stand there and worry about it? IF that's the card you're dealt that's the card you play.Just pick up the slack and keep on going.
