Do not know anything about Belmont or round pond. Are these fishing spots producing any decent bites? Thank you for the reply.

Fished Prompton yesterday. Good ice right from shore. Was windy but fish were biting fairly well.
This morning went back to walk the dogs. The lake was empty at sunrise, but the parking lot was filling up when we left at 8:00.

At least you got some ice time. Might not make it to Prompton until Sunday. Was there only one time this year,actually it was my fist time ever there. Ended up catching a 18" bass and a few gills. My new favorite place. lol

I agree,it looks like a warm up the next few days then a cool down. March is around the corner, so get out as much as possible.

Not personal experience Mitcher, but friends were there on Saturday and reported 14" of ice.  No problem getting off or on.  Should be good to go for quite a while.
