How is the ice thickness in the Castleton area? I have a chance to get a weekend in the area. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

    Eckley Bay was froze over.No wet spots.I did not check the ice thickness.Rabbit Island North to the Float Bridge  was froze and people fishing out from the boat launch..Indian Point and the Bay were locked up good.Nobody was fishing there except about 30 yards out from the Conservation Camp beach area.They didn't look to brave as they were close to shore.More like 10 yards out.Be Safe

Caution.  Bring a spud and check the thickness before you move out to fair.  The main lake froze Sunday morning.  It should only have about an 1" or 2" at the most.  North of Spooners Bay may have 2-4" inches.
