Any recent update on the ice in the mc to Shannon's area after that crazy warmup and quick temperature change???

Moose76 · « **Reply #249 on:** Jan 13, 2018, 04:05 PM »

Went down to check out muddy creek and the maples the shore ice is bad no one was out.

ducksnbucks36 · « **Reply #250 on:** Jan 13, 2018, 05:23 PM »

Same thing seen here while hunting today shore ice not the greatest. Nobody out on the ice. Give her sometime and we’ll be back on

copendirt · « **Reply #251 on:** Jan 13, 2018, 10:18 PM »

How much of the snow stayed on the lake or did we get lucky and it blew off?

Moose76 · « **Reply #252 on:** Jan 13, 2018, 10:35 PM »

Looked like a couple inches of snow on the ice one or two wasn't goin out to check!

Jagger0502 · « **Reply #253 on:** Jan 14, 2018, 11:32 AM »

Here is muskrat cove. No one is out here. Looks covered with a few wet spots but it’s flooded out almost to the top of the cement where the dock goes in. As the water level goes down it will like cause some problem areas if you are not careful. Looks like it’s weak 5 -10 feet off shore before you get to anything solid.

Jagger0502 · « **Reply #254 on:** Jan 14, 2018, 11:43 AM »

Taking a quick drive around the lake after church, I don’t see anyone yet. Here is a picture coming across the 422 bridge. Didn’t see anyone chancing it at mcdaniels. I will stop by porters on my way home and see what it looks like.

Tom7541 · « **Reply #255 on:** Jan 14, 2018, 06:09 PM »

Portersville. Had good ice today 7" to 8" all holes four other guys out there today

Jagger0502 · « **Reply #256 on:** Jan 15, 2018, 07:18 AM »

I stopped by porters and saw a few guys out there. Must have been you. Planed to grab my stuff and come out somewhere but when I got home from church I found my chest freezer stopped working and everything thawing out so the wife spent the day cooking and I spent the day eating. Lost some venison and fish but she was able to cook and freeze a lot of it to eat later. It was my worst fear come true. Glad we caught it in time and only lost a little.

Tom7541 · « **Reply #257 on:** Jan 15, 2018, 07:29 AM »

Sorry to hear that now ya have an excuse to go fish have to fill that freezer good luck

Mknott · « **Reply #259 on:** Jan 16, 2018, 08:05 AM »

Hows the. Shannon finger looking??

Jason120 · « **Reply #260 on:** Jan 16, 2018, 02:01 PM »

Didn't see anyone on Shannon. I'm on muddy creek at the moment and found 8-10 inches of ice, no luck so far.

Mknott · « **Reply #261 on:** Jan 16, 2018, 04:40 PM »

How thick was the ice around the shorelines at muddy Creek area??? Heard shorelines melted pretty good during the 3 days of 55 degree weather we had

Jason120 · « **Reply #262 on:** Jan 16, 2018, 05:50 PM »

I'm not sure I didn't drill any holes at the shore but it felt pretty solid

Tom7541 · « **Reply #263 on:** Jan 16, 2018, 06:02 PM »

That’s like asking for a gold mine. People who constistently catch them and numbers of them are tight lipped about it unless you get in close with them.

New to the forum and new to ice fishing but i do have some walleye fishing experience. 3rd time out tonight. 2nd time on arthur. 7 inches of ice on the main channel edge. Caught some perfect walleye meal sized perch on the edge of the main channel and a sandy flat about an hour before dark so I'm thinking I was on the right track unfortunatly i had to leave before prime time.

Tom7541 · « **Reply #267 on:** Jan 16, 2018, 09:07 PM »
