I went to a bigger lake not far from there and had a good 4 to 7 Inches, would expect woods to be pretty good after tomm but it won't hurt to be cautious
if your not fishing, your not living

The river came up a bit with the storm so it should freeze up in next couple days

With the temps the last few days I’m starting to feel pretty confident the ice should be safe at woods  . How’s it looking out in the rest of western mass ?

I think everyone was planning on a woods party so no one has been checking elsewhere.

The woods party is Saturday . We will be there the day before thank god . I got 6-7” of ice here in south central ma so I’m assuming western mass should have the same if not more

Couldn't pay me to hit woods pond this week. Early ice, minimal effort guys will be there until there buddies tell them where there is OTHER ice.  Dont forget to socially distance yourself out there  ;D fisherman every 6' at woods mean 5 of you can go at a time lol

I was planning on setting up camp.  Have a group of 10 employees from work that want to ice their first pike.

Similar, but imagine it on a MUCH smaller body of water with not as great rewards.  It can be a zoo somedays
