River channel in front of Fowler doesn't look good. Might be able to find fishable ice in front of the beach southward. As fast as the Narrows opened up I'm really hesitant to say there is safe ice out there, but there probably is.

Might see the ice firm up a bit with the cold temps. The glowing ball in the sky is gonna make that tough though.

Thank you again SchrnLker. Where did the narrows open up?? It was pretty solid once we got on last weekend. Might take trip up Saturday....scout about for Sunday AM.

Might not be the best ice to go venture out on if you have not fished the lake before. I may take the ride up Sunday to take a look with another stop in mind just in case.

icehouserlt · « **Reply #1335 on:** Mar 10, 2017, 07:40 PM »

Ice on schroon is good. Edges r a little ruff but good once on.

icehouserlt · « **Reply #1340 on:** Mar 11, 2017, 08:25 PM »

We got 3 Lakers. A 19 a 22 and a 14. Lost 2 others at the hole. It's was cold and windy but worth the trip for me. 10 -12 inches of good ice there

Garufi518 · « **Reply #1341 on:** Mar 12, 2017, 07:39 AM »

Here now 1 off narrows I can see 1 off fowler and one off the launch about to be 2

Walkin624 · « **Reply #1342 on:** Mar 12, 2017, 07:50 AM »

Is the shore at the town launch safe? I know people are out there but is it safe? I'm thinking of coming up tomorrow.

Garufi518 · « **Reply #1343 on:** Mar 12, 2017, 09:07 AM »

I went off to the right of the launch left side had a thin sheet then water then ice again ....measured 10-12" was in 43 FOW lost one on the first drop down felt decent they seemed active ....my girlfriend lasted 20mins....ice was LOUD

outdoors4good · « **Reply #1344 on:** Mar 12, 2017, 01:44 PM »

Thanks for the info. Just what I was looking/hoping for. Good luck to all who head out and stay safe.

Well....after yesterday you can't cross the ridge that goes across from Eagle Point. Have to stay north or south of it.

yeah, finding a pressure ridge we couldn't cross - now that was a first! Walked the length of it, had to go right to shore to get around it. I measured 8" of ice out there. Was able to drive down the hill with 4wd.

lowaccord66 · « **Reply #1348 on:** Mar 13, 2017, 02:13 PM »

It was quite the ice shift....

EatenByLimestone · « **Reply #1349 on:** Mar 14, 2017, 08:16 AM »

It looks like our ice will be sheltered from the sun for a bit. lemons, lemonade...
