Think small or go north. Anything of size or with inlets outlets might be sketchy. Wherever you go drill lots of holes to check. Pretend it was early season.

Not sure where you live, but anything in southern Maine I would avoid. Depending on your location, you may have to travel.
I like to walk on water.

I'm sure we lost some ice. I would check often walking or driving. A few sleds have gone through recently in different areas.

A lot of places last weekend only had 4-8 inches.  After a week of 50 degrees and a ton of rain I might take this weekend off.  Looks like winter returns next week though...

The shacks are off sabbattus. A lot of 5-6" ice, some thicker near shore

I will take a fishing break until next wed, Thursday, the weather shows the nights will be below freezing starting the first of the week . With this snow coming we need to tread lightly and check with chisels.
