I have not been able to get out much. I was out a couple weeks ago and we did OK on walleye. We caught one 25", a 21.5" and several 13-15 inchers. You would think with the cold and such we have had that the ice would be very good. The reports I am hearing is that there is a layer of slush and them 3-4" of good ice. The problem is that you could have good ice in one area and move a shrt distance and run into thinner ice. I would use extreme caution when venturing out as the ice is very unreliable. It is already New Years and on a typical year we would have plenty of ice to drive on. Thses are the worst ice conditions I can remember.
