Gratiot and more so Medora are snow magnets.  I wish it were otherwise as I hand pull my gear for the most part and those lakes can be a work-out to say the least. 

I checked the web cams for Copper Harbor yesterday and there was little to no ice, look like it might have started to form up over night. 

Here's a link to the one on the east side looking west

Thanks for the links.  Well the ice doesn't exactly look very promising, although the ice over by the marina is the first to form.  Hopefully there's some good ice over there, otherwise I will be fishing somewhere else. :-\

Didn't get to check out the ice on gratiot, but I have heard that some people fished the lake a few days ago...although they said it only took 1-2 spud hits to break through :-\
