Summit ice?
« on: Dec 05, 2008, 06:21 PM »
Sure its probably still early, but any word on ice forming at summit? Really gonna hit the hard water hard there this year, and am getting anxious. If it wasnt close to an hour drive, id go check fer myself.

I don't know about Summit, but even if there is fishable ice this weekend or next, you probably can't get on it because of a special geese hunt.

Check out this news release on the Indiana DNR web site:

Trust me, i live on the safe side, especially when it comes to ice. Have always had a very healthy respect for it.
Whats the time difference up there for safe ice in the bays, and safe ice out in the deeper water? Have alway wanted to venture out for the percha nd walleyes there, but just never had.
