Thanks for the report. A foot of slush under the ice will make for challenging ice fishing. Hopefully the situation will correct itself with some colder weather. Perch fishing never does pick up much until January anyway. Might be worth a try for a few jumbo walleyes in tight though. Run off from the L. Francis drain should continue for some time. I have never seen the marsh as high as it was at freeze up.
