Just a bit in some of the shallow bays (like mine on the north end). Wouldn't care to venture out on it at all yet.

What do you catch ice fishing there? I used to go there with my grandparents when I was young.

Pike, Walleye and Perch are in the lake...

 

Pike seem to be the dominant species.

 

Mmmmmm...

You get back to your combat painting.

Ice as far as I can see this morning before I left. Guess it skimmed over last night. Too dark when I got in to see very far but no open water where I could see. Doubt it's more than a skim but if it holds who knows...?

Temps are not looking good for a good solid freeze up,and this snow aint helpping either.

Hardly any snow here and the forecast doesn't show anything above zero except for Saturday, minus 18c tonight. May be a good thing, y'all know how fast the forecast can change. North end of Simcoe & what I can see of Cooch seem covered as well as of this evening just before dusk. Not that I'd trust it yet of course, but a good start if the temps cooperate.
