Looks promising on the cams, however I didn’t spot anyone out there.
Where’d you see people out?

He's saying he will see everyone out on the ice not that you can see people out there.

Feels a little like Christmas today, see everyone out there!

Just misinterpreted this post that’s all, but thanks for looking out.

Did not but that’s the one I am looking for on a report as well. Didn’t have time to go that far.

Bixby Beach

Thank You for the info and pictures SchrnLker, that was a great report...

Chase88 · « **Reply #10478 on:** Jan 21, 2020, 04:16 PM »

From Top of the World ice as far as you could see....

JJ · « **Reply #10479 on:** Jan 21, 2020, 04:45 PM »

Mostly open water from Diamond Island north on the main lake, some ice near shore.

Fishmon · « **Reply #10480 on:** Jan 21, 2020, 07:26 PM »

Drove along west shoreline from Village on my way up to Hague. Lots of skim ice and open water areas. Not ready yet. Sabbath Day point area iced over but mostly open north of Silver Bay and can still launch boat in Hague. Hopefully it does not get too windy in next few days. Wind will take its toll on ice very quickly.

TimK · « **Reply #10481 on:** Jan 21, 2020, 08:57 PM »

So close, yet so far! Such a tedious situation.

habbmx5 · « **Reply #10484 on:** Jan 22, 2020, 06:45 AM »

Am I seeing things or is that open water behind that guy?

mike304 · « **Reply #10485 on:** Jan 22, 2020, 06:47 AM »

That's a really neat video, thanks for sharing!

ship of fools · « **Reply #10492 on:** Jan 22, 2020, 09:30 AM »

That's a great video - what a shame it didn't get down to zero last night again.

Chase88 · « **Reply #10493 on:** Jan 22, 2020, 10:02 AM »

great video.... too bad the wind opened up a lot of that.....

mike304 · « **Reply #10494 on:** Jan 22, 2020, 10:22 AM »

Doesn't have to be below zero to make ice!

NatefishNY · « **Reply #10495 on:** Jan 22, 2020, 11:45 AM »

A couple guys off of MDB this morning with reports of 3-4 inches with the occasional 1 inch spot. Too dicey for me still but if you head out make sure you spud every step.

It's getting close!

SSmokinn SS · « **Reply #10496 on:** Jan 22, 2020, 12:46 PM »

I was just up there guys. Checked veterans, huddle, hearthstone... that entire side of the lake. Around 12pm the wind was howling. Any fresh, think clear ice that was made last night is gone. Veterans and huddle were taking a beating with the wind, and note it was 33* at 12. All the fresh ice was chunked up and the wind was then chunking up the thicker ice edge made from the other night. Not good.

Tyler- you must have taken that video this morning before the wind started. Majority of the area in your video currently is open water.

You were correct. There was one guy on huddle when I stopped by... but I will tell you that he was barely off shore. Any productive spot I have ever fished in huddle I would be swimming right now.

Ah I see-I was kind of thinking that myself. I see what you mean, definitely not worth it if you can’t get to a semi-productive area at least.
How far out was there ice? Was it as far as Sweetbriar island at least?
