A bunch of the Kankakee River backwaters were iced over this weekend. I fished one for a couple hours on the IL side of the line yesterday morning. Didn't catch anything, but it was fun to say I was on the ice in November.
The edges were pretty thin, so it took a while to find a solid spot to get on, but out in the center was 3"
With the weather turning up the way it is, I'm sure they'll all be back to open water today or tomorrow.
