I haven't been there this year, but have fished it in the past.  Because its water level fluctuates constantly, I'd be very leery. I've actually seen it on "good" ice years where there would be space between the ice and the water when you drilled through. Be careful!!!  :tipup:

been there twice first time good ice and plenty of perch but the second time i almost went through drilled a hole next to shore and good ice went out and drilled the first hole to fish and wow look at that only two and now its starting to crack around me,  jumped in the sled and shimmied back to shore.  also know 1 or 2 people that went through there.  very unsafe body of water.

Inman is a table 2 water, not open for bass in the winter.  Pg94 in the book.

i e-mailed dept. of fish & wildlife about the warden. but in his defense, at the time it wasn't listed in the law book so maybe this is why he gave me the go-ahead

Well, there is a lot of safe ice for this weekend, but I doubt I'll make it out.  Got the baby on Saturday and working the show on Sunday.
