Ice... close, yet so far.

This weather is absolutely killing me. High of 54 today, then a high of 18 on Friday then back into the 40s on Sunday. It doesn't seem like we'll ever get ice. It's the same every year :(

We get a good one once in a while. Jan-Mar 2019 were really good for ice. I think March 9th was my last ice day.
Jan/Feb 2014 were really good, too, but I had a kid coming anytime and too much other stuff to take care of to get out much that winter.

Just checked the same 3 ponds. The two bigger ones were pretty inconsistent because of the wind making them lock up so slow. Had .5-1.5"
The smallest one had a pretty consistent 2" all the way around.

I got out yesterday and scratched the itch a little. Was on 3" but I was also on only 3' of water. Caught a ton of gills but kept none. Just was nice to get out for a few hours

Guessing you're up in N IL to find 3" of decent ice?
