Not good! Never made it out onto the ice. Found the public access and waited for daylight to surface, wasn't ready to venture out in the dark not knowing. Glad we waited! We saw 1 massive area of open water with several other areas of open water.Lots of grey patches and numerous heaves, pressure cracks. Drove around towards Smokes Pt. to find more open water and about 100ft of ice that was probably 1" thick straight out from the launch.
Decided to drive into Trenton and fish Potters. Good ice. lousy fishn. Better luck nextime.

Thats too bad!! My buddies I fish with in softwater season told me that the ice on wellers is fussy like that. They usually wait until February until they venture out as it can be 6 inches in one spot and 2 in another or 6 inches today and 2 tomorrow.
I'm gonna wait till I get the call from the locals. I live about 1.5 hours away so I want to be sure.
