Fished Bantam yesterday afternoon on the north end. You'll need a plank to get on, but I drilled 12" on my holes, ice looks okay, half and half black and white, some funny holes around though, so be careful. This was also in an area that gets plenty of shade, so keep that in mind. I saw people in the south bay too, but then again, there are always people in the south bay.
