I was on a bus and just happened to be sitting on a news paper. This guy came up and asked. "Are you reading that ?"
I said  yes, stood up, turned the page and sat back down.

There are a lot of bodies of water around here that are capped. The little sioux and all creeks. The smaller lakes are as well. Too bad it won't last.

No but the water temps won't come up much either. It will only take a few days of frigid weather in a couple of weeks to freeze for good.

On thin ice I don't go out very far and the gill pond I fish is only 5' deep because of the drought and I tie a rope to truck when I go on less than 3" of ice LOL but I agree becareful to everyone that is out trying thin ice take someone with you on shore
