Fished muddy creek on Sunday and had about 4 inches of ice. Also heard guys fishing bear run and in front of the church. Check out the reports and conditions page lots of info there.

Can't comment on anywhere other than Muddy Creek. Fished it Sun and Mon, had 4" of solid, clear ice with about 1/2" of white ice on top of that. Snow on Monday may have put a light cover, but I left by 2pm so not sure what happened as the second front rolled in.

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone know a place to buy chubs near Lake Arthur?

Thanks,

I didn't see a introduction page but wanted to say hi. I see a couple familiar names here from other places around the web. I am pretty much a rookie but am wanting to get out a little bit this year. Will mostly fish Lake Arthur, but also have a few other places I want to try.

Hopefully with these next 2 nights in the single digits, it'll be at least 6" thick at upper 528 area. Going up this Thursday for some Gill!!!

OD's sells chubs? I didn't know that...but then again it's been years since I've been in there.

Mknott · « **Reply #12 on:** Jan 19, 2016, 05:02 PM »

will do fishfinder 528.

WormBall · « **Reply #13 on:** Jan 20, 2016, 10:05 AM »

Speaking of Mcdainels, any idea of the ice conditions there?

Snapper · « **Reply #14 on:** Jan 20, 2016, 12:07 PM »

I've not seen anyone on the main lake yet. There was still open water in areas of the main lake on Monday. I'd think you would want to stay away from there for another week.

Had 4-5" of clear ice at Mcdaniels but always check were you going

fishfinder528 · « **Reply #17 on:** Jan 20, 2016, 05:18 PM »

Has anbody heard anything on old 422? I know it's deep out across to the other side. There was a guy out last Sunday but he was only 50ft off the shore. Just trying to weigh my options for Saturday and my best opportunity to get some action.

Mknott · « **Reply #18 on:** Jan 20, 2016, 07:14 PM »

Heard there was still open water by the 422 bridge, anyone know how thick it is at upper 528 launch?

never good idea to be by either 528 or 422 bridge due to salted road runoff.more snow more bad ice

Mknott · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 20, 2016, 07:26 PM »

6-7" at upper 528???! That's great!

I've never even seen him have any of those...but then again like I said I stopped going in there a few years ago.

Anyone know how the ice is at the church
Driving up in my car figured that might be ok parking without getting stuck

gusgus637 · « **Reply #27 on:** Jan 20, 2016, 09:54 PM »

4-5" people all around it today.
