I went out and tried hickory grove yesterday, closest lake aside ada hayden. Ice was still solid and 9 inches thick. Didnt go out too far but there was 2 others who were out walking the majority of the lake. Bad news is didnt catch a damn thing and only marked a handful. Going to meet a buddy and try brushy out later today. Will report back what i find up that way.

I would think all the ice is good.  I was fishing sw ia yesturday, 12 mile and still had 7 inches.  Ice was good.

Big Creek is good.  9+ inches.  Bite was really slow though.

A bad day of fishing is better then a good day at work!

All is good around des Moines that i have found

I was on a bus and just happened to be sitting on a news paper. This guy came up and asked. "Are you reading that ?"
I said  yes, stood up, turned the page and sat back down.
