Drove by Delta today. It is pretty locked up. The only open water I saw was up towards the mohawk in the backsets. Looks like a good 2-3" or more. If these cold nights stick around, should be good by this weekend.

Was there tonight checking and it is nowhere near 3". I couldn't make it 5' from shore w/o breaking through. The wind reall hurt the ice making as there is a huge pile of broken ice about 3' from shore. With the cold temps it MIGHT be ready by the weekend...until them I will work and fish the ADK's still.

Thanks Ranger, I saw sled tracks near the backsets, but  it didnt look like they ventured far from shore. Weekend temps look to be in the mid thirties during the day  >:(  I was hoping to be on the ice by monday, but I might just head up to Limekiln next week.

Yes bring the Vex!! Why fish with out lol. Delta holds some decent panfish and perch with some pike and walleyes in a secret spot  :whistle: I would play it safe for a while and fish the back side (Westernville side) until we get more ice.

Not a good idea to go there now!!! I had a friend who went this morning and there was 2" and pooring out. Thin ice and open water, I hope no one try's to fish it until a good hard freeze.
