I was out there a couple Sundays ago. It was probably top 3 sketchiest ice I have been on, we couldn't make it anywhere we wanted to go b/c of open water pockets so just popped a couple holes closer to shore just to get the lines wet. That was during our warm period, it was 42* when we were fishing. I haven't been back just b/c I assume there hasn't been enough cold to get it sealed up again.
