Marked some last weekend  ::) in tri-state area... The lake was half skimmed over for a few mornings last week, canals we're still frozen in spots. Had to bust out pinky haha

Funniest thing about ice fishing for me is when people who know nothing about ice activities try to warn me about the dangers of the ice...

Not my tracks but somebody (probably 40lbs lighter than me ;D) popped a few holes on the shallow little 1st ice spot. I'll be out tomorrow. Pretty much 2-3" of frozen slush. Checked out about a dozen other lakes and everything is open water with small sections of ice forming in areas protected from the wind. Should be a lot more ice cover come tomorrow and Tuesday.
