Cudz Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 I have been in Orlando enduring 80 degree temps for the past 10 days. I will be driving home tomorrow and wondering if there is a chance that Simcoe is fishable? Cooks usually freezes sooner so is that safe? Kempenfelt bay? When I ask about it being safe I mean 'take your kids on the ice safe' thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 2 days ago a guy fell through 17ft of water out from hiway 89 must have been just north of 89, I was just south of 89 gilford road and it wasn't too too bad by now I would think checking as you walk the south part of cooks bay shouldn't be too bad but one must make up ones own mind as to what is safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fang Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Was out off Gilford today drilled holes at 4 different locations. Started out due east of Kon Tikki and then headed north about 1/2 km. 1 spot was 4 inches of solid Black ice. Most we found was 8" - 6" of black and 2 inches of white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
