4-5" of ice out here now.  Not a fish in sight!

This past Sunday the South Bay boat launch was open out about 25 yards. A few guys were spudding in close to the rocks.  And it was 50 after that. Who know, be safe

Same for me a few other guys about a week ago on 3+ inches...not one fish put on the ice...I was out ~6 hrs.
One other difference from my usual first ice experiences at Bantam is that the Morris accesses were blocked off. Don’t know why.

Are you talking about lot by day camp? I've noticed it chained off sometimes in the past few seasons.  I also saw Litchfield boat launch gas an official sign.

No. I am referring to the Morris boat launch access in the SE corner of S. Bay and the “beach” access just west of there.
Both are barricaded off. Bummer!

The Morris ct fire department used to have a Derby off the town beach there.

Anyone know if it survived
