Fox River

[l0oking_for_ice]

All,
   I will be traveling form NY to Appleton a little later this spring and know nothing of the area.  Can anyone tell me about the fox river?  Mostly I am just curious about:
     a) does this freeze or is there current to keep it open?
     b) if it freezes when is a general ice-out time? 

 Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, the fox river does freeze during the winter months. However, there is good current, so it will re-open pretty fast. General ice-out time seems to be early/Mid march.

Are ya sure you wanna fish the Fox? You might catch something with a third eye or an extra fin.

Go out to Poygan or Butte Des Morts just N.W. of Oshkosh instead. You can also try Winnebago.
