Title: Is it safe?
Post by: James92 on May 14, 2012, 01:43 AM

Hey all, just curious when the hardwater season is no longer safe in YK. I know the shorelines are now open, but is the ice still hard/thick enough to fish on? I have not noticed anyone out, but it looks pretty thick yet.

You should be able to get on the bigger lakes still.
Last week there was still 3'+ on Prosperous & Prelude.
Make sure you take your safety gear though as areas with current are not safe.
