Went out on Saturday & Sunday this weekend, and even with the near 50º temperatures and sun on Sunday, ice was still 5" thick. Saturday was very slow, fish were hugging the bottom and didn't really want to bite. But on Sunday, panfish & crappie were biting like crazy...most were still hugging the bottom, but some crappie were suspended at 8-10' in 15' of water.

Last couple evenings slow dinks here and there, ice about 5” maybe little less on the South end of the lake..

Talked to the police on the lake and confirmed the Gill daily bag is 10 per day. He told me someone keeps peeling the updated sticker off the signs in certain places around the lake, they will be fixing them again shortly. This pic was from the Bait shop at Wauconda Boat. I never take that many just wanted to know for myself as well just in case. 

I was out today,  ice was about 5 to 6 inches every where I was.  Fishing has been real slow last few days,   the 5 people I talked to one small perch was caught today between us.

Anyone been out this week, if so what are the ice conditions?

Anyone out on the ice today?

Anyone read F in the rules. With all extra money that is generating from this they should hire someone to proof read. 

Those tipups have been out for quite a while by cook park,  I went by today and they were still out there with no sign of anyone around them.   

Been a little slow seen a few tip ups in the distance.. yep either the sign or the website is wrong... 

I thought the pan fish limit was 10.  When did they increase it to 25?

Drove up to check ice conditions,  went thru cook park and looked a little to wet for me to venture out and be the test Guinea pig :) No one on the lake and no foot prints in the snow but 2 tipups were out a little bit right of cook park but no one around.  Posted a pic of new sign with regulations.
