I'm out fishing right now and all the snow is gone there is 2" of water on top. I still feel safe. Kinda
I hit west lake park today, and the ice was getting a little questionable. for the most part there was 4-5" of good solid ice, but there were some parts in the 3" range. Also, some of the older holes opened up to about 2 feet wide. The ice is still good, you just have to keep an eye on where you are going
Can I ask why you were fishing at west lake? I've never caught a keeper there in the 15 years I have fished it, other than trout.. but who cares bout them glorified creek chubs.
