Lincoln woods...

[Ballbag]

Checked Lincoln Woods and a good portion is still open near the boat ramp all the way to the old red shed. Most of the coves are frozen especially near the Twin River Rd entrance. The edges were water but I'm sure there was a spot to get on the ice. I didn't walk out because I had my dog and he would just run right out! Some other small ponds in the Lincoln area were locked up but I'm gonna wait till the weekend. Stay safe

Hitting cabelas in an hour then home to work on the gear, need a new jig rod since I break one every year. Gonna find some new wire to experiment with.

Checked Lincoln Woods today and there was a good amount of open water. Lots of wet spots but most of the coves were ice. Didn't look like anyone had been on it. Could be total junk by the end of the week.
