misfish Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Shore lines are sketchy, but a group of us are giving it another go this weekend. Main ice is ok, and the cold nights and cooler days will help prolong the ice season. Im waiting to see what the coming weather wise, is over a week from now.

BillM Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Like Brian said, main lake should be fine, it's just getting onto the ice that's the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maker a laker Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 (edited) Guys, No issue walking out from Keswick park Sunday AM. Melt and rain from mid-week were solid on top of 18-20 inches of quality ice. Cold and breezy for sure. Hardly anyone on the ice compared to the week before, given all the huts were pulled on time. Boot traction strap ons necessary for sure. Lots of quality perch to be had as well. Edited March 5, 2018 by maker a laker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronzo Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 No. I live close to Lockhart Rd, lots of good ice still if you know your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 YuP ^^^^^^^^^^^ Just came off. 14" ice. Found good access. Buddy nailed 2 whities. I swung and missed. Good ice holding tamps on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Ronzo, I went out off Lockhart yesterday and was surprised at how much ice we lost in the last few days. Still fishable but the clock is ticking. And I'd say access at Lockhart is officially toast for machines. One of your neighbours tried with an ATV and it ended with a tow strap and a broken fender.

Ronzo Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 You would not catch me out there on an ATV now, not a chance. IMO you're moving way too fast to react to bad ice on any kind of machine at this point on Simcoe. Quite annoying to see the shoreline being bashed up by machines.

irishfield Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Ice can't be too bad yet, watched a guy drive his truck off on the news last night. At least this broadcast wasn't the usual fear mongering style of CTV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 How about that red trashed hut left on the side of the road. Ya that will help in keeping your access in the future. DICK HEAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Yup saw a bunch of cars on the ice yesterday it is only the shore line in spots and the high current areas that have any issues and that is ongoing any year any time. The lake is making ice not losing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lake is making ice not losing it lol, those rednecks will drive their cars on anything though, my boys were out on 6 inches on scugog on first ice and the boys had their cars out... Gotta love the guys that leave all of their trash on the lake when they take their huts off too. last weekend i saw a guy with his hut up on 2 foot long pieces of 2x6...tied up the shack and just drove off leaving all of his wood and shims...should make some nice dead heads to hit with my lower end come spring.
