I'll be out there tomorrow.  Starting at Kilkare and going everywhere until I find fish.  Some scouting for Sunday when I take my brother out.  I'll be solo at first in a red Arctic Armor suit, dragging my sled with my PVC rod holders and Ion w/ my 4" auger on it.  Don't be a stranger if you see me.
Ugh! Ive been up since 345 ready to go. only 24hrs to go, see you out there tomorrow
Come on get on the ice fish!!

Just heard from two buddies out at Kilkare today. Be prepared for 40 mph south winds and getting stuck in snow on the ice if you drive out!

Were they driving trucks? I haven't been having to much trouble, but I suppose that could have changed

He drives an AWD Element with knobby snowtires. Got stuck in a snowdrift. It's got pretty good clearance, but I guess if you've got a truck you might still be able to get out there. Cars have no hope.

Just got off the phone with Bayside Bait.  No whites being caught in the bay at all.  He said there were a few being caught in 65fow off Georgia shore, but nobody is catching them in the bay.  Guess I'll go with Plan B for tomorrow.

I drove to Kilkare today, got out of my car and then got back in and drove home.  The wind was gusting to about 40 MPH and was over 20 MPH nonstop.  Wind forecast was way off.   I saw 4-5 people out there in shanties.  I highly doubt anyone really put in effort to cover any water out there today.....

I've caught some here and there up in the islands, but they were all by accident.
