Title: Good ice at Oxford Furnace lake
Post by: cooter83 on Feb 13, 2021, 05:47 PM

Today was a mild breezy afternoon on Furnace lake.  The area I fished had about 6 inches of ice. Didn't catch anything in the afternoon.  Went back right before dark and caught 3 bluegills in a20 minute span.  Just STAW AWAY from the cove to the far left of the boat launch.  There's a spring over there and the ducks have kept open a very small portion of open water by that spring.

Hows this thaw and run off working out up there?  we need a 6 foot plank to get on what little ice we have down here.Thinking about one last trip north tomorrow if there is still access to the ice. Any info is greatly appreciated.
