Is th ice on South Bay OK to get onto?

[roofman]

Last Sunday it was 8-10 inches.I strongly doubt it that it is not safe now.Specially with the temps last night and today.I am planning a Saturday trip.Anyway be careful and stay safe.Good luck!!!

[vaughan]

Thank you!

You were right roofman, went today and still about 10” of ice.  There were about 8 of us out there, I caught 2 pike, nothing jigging.  Edges were fine.  Thanks again.

[roofman]

Well done my friend.I am heading out there in the am.

We are hitting the north bay tommorrow. Unfortunately, not till noon. Pretty sure the ice from last week is still there. Hopefully, more pike though

Hit South Bay today with my dad and 2 buddies. Landed one Pike and lost one at the hole. Couple small perch. Nothing exciting

Hit it for the afternoon. Perch and more perch... daughter got a 30 inch pike. Perch swarmed on us. Beautiful day to fish and nice solid ice

Where can a non local park in the north bay. What area are people fishing for north bay pike in front of the bantam river?

[roofman]

Check for North Shore rd.You will see the parking on the right.You need to walk in.

Fished south cove yesterday. Day started with thick fog and sound of few augers. By 10 am or so the fog started to lift and there were few guys out in a distance. Not many like previous weekend. Ice was good. Some water after that brief rain overnight. Managed to get 5 flags and landed 2 pike. All under 28 inches. It was slow at times and the flags came almost one after another in a coordinated like manner. Lol.

[roofman]

anyone has a report on ice thickness?thanks

[roofman]

Ice is 10-12".North bay.

Went to Bantam today. Slow day. Had 3 flags and landed a small perch. Nice day to be on ice.  Few parties out there, but seemed like nobody was doing much. By 1 p.m. or so everybody was packing up. Oh well perhaps next time.

I agree with icyfish007 it was pretty slow. Fished from 7 to 12 and only 2 fish caught between the 3 of us. 1 pikeral and 1 small pike maybe 14 inches. Lots of people. Ice was 7 to 8 inches where we fished

Very slow day on the flags.  2 guys 3 flags, lost one fish..  Perch showed up for a bit on the jig rod,  ended up with half a dozen solid ones and a bunch of dinks. Didn't  see much action  around in any of the group's I could see

Fished the South Bay also 7-2. Was slow but it was my 1st time there,did not know what to expect. Ended up with 3 flags all day but did manage 2 Pike one real small and other decent size. Did not see much action from anybody close by just a few flags here and there.
