how's the ice on wamplers, vinyard or sand? do you think it will be safe with the high's on friday and saturday or is it a no go? thanks and safe fishing!

Well, I was on Sand last Sunday and there was 5" of good clear ice with about 10" of snow on top. I think that all this rain is going to do is knock some of this snow down a bit. With that in mind, always spud your way out first time on a lake early in the season.

I have not been on sand yet this year but I did pull into the parking lot and almost got stuck. It is not plowed and a mess. I have a 4x4 truck and thought I was going to have to walk down to my house and get my tractor to get my truck out.

Vineyard had 5" of ice and 2" of snow/slush probably will not have anything in the morning. Already starting to show signs of water in front of the house.

Checked Vineyard, Stoney, Wamplers. Mud, Round and Allen this morning no one out. Fished Stoney yesterday and about 5 inches of good ice did see I guy spuding the ice around shore this morning went back by and seen his son out ice skating.
