Well today I decided to burn a little gas and headed up to the lakes region Pemi and wickwas have fishable ice of up to 5inches where I looked(in the small coves) by the public launches. I also checked out some of the small trout ponds around Meredith and they had a honest 2-3 inches. I also have reports of 5-6 inches of ice in Tewksburry pond in Newton NH from a good friend and will fish there tommrow, I also found 4-5 inches of ice in a cove by the Kingston lake state park. On the way back I also saw alton bay, looking good about 100-150 yards past the band stand and the ice at the boat ramp is 2-3 inches thick. Wont be long before winni startes to lock up. Good luck this weekend and check ice often, this early ice can be very spotty.
