Well three of us loaded up in the truck and went to check on ice conditions yesterday. Medium to Large lakes have skimmed over but are NOT suitable for travel yet. Skim ice up to an inch on these lakes.

However we did find a small lake that I like early was suitable for foot travel with 2-3 inches of ice covering the bay we walked on. In all honesty, fishing was great! We limited on walleyes before dark, and had action from about 30 fish in 2 1/2 hours. We caught them on tip-ups, jigging small demon jigs, and buckshot rattle spoons. Most of the walleyes were from 14-17 inches with the biggest landing at 19". Great tasting treats.
