danbouck Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Anybody been out to Puslinch lately and know how thick the ice is. I'm going out with with my 4 year on Saturday. If the ice is safe I will take out the quad otherwise I'm gonna hit Shades Mill.
kevin booth Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 i was out 2 weekends ago and theres lots of ice 12 to 14 inches and lots of bike and sleds and dirt bikes on the ice we had our quad out as well.

vinnimon Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 I spoke to someone yesterday that fishs puslinch often. The ice is aparantely 8 to 9" according to him. Maybe more
basketclam Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 Haven't been on Puslinch itself, but over the Christmas break there was a good 8 inches of ice on a couple of ponds very nearby. Made for a couple of good games of shinny with the in-laws. This was before the couple of days of rain, but we've had cold weather since then so I'd be surprised if the ice wasn't in good shape.
danbouck Posted January 12, 2011 Author Report Posted January 12, 2011 I'll keep checking the rest of the week. Don't want to take any chances especially when my son is with me.
Cookslav Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 My bro was out there on the weekend, said he was on a solid 7" Fishing was slow, but he managed a couple dinks. Good luck out there
jediangler Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 For safety sake I'd be taking the little one to Shade's as he won't have to dodge nutcases on their sleds. Seriously, you stand a much better chance of being injured by sleds on Puslinch than any issues with ice thickness. You also won't have to breathe carbon monoxide all day.

We were gonna take the quad Can't get enough of the smell of 2 stroke!

Spiel Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 This sad event happened on Sunday on Puslinch. http://www.therecord...n-puslinch-lake I was going to post that as well. Puslinch is best avoided for fishing IMHO especially with young'ns. Little lake right beside it would be a safer bet or as JA mentioned, Shade's Mills or perhaps Valens.
