Just wondering how much ice is left near the "Big V"?

Pretty much all of it! Low of 13 tonight and no signs of a real warm up. It's getting tough to swallow

Alright, let me rephrase it. How thick is the ice?

I don't think there are many who are brave enough to go check.

Talked with a guy who fished it last weekend and he said 12 or more inches where he drilled but it was getting soft. River mouths are opening up so it won't be long now.

Too much! I was out last weekend and found about 10" of ice, but it was getting soft and honeycombed pretty bad. The 16 degree air temp this morning isn't helping matters at all tho.

Soft but 13" here on Leech hard to find spots where you can still get on it. It will be awhile yet

V will have ice for a while.
This Friday's high is 28 and the low of 7* is cold.
Won't see 50's for at least another 10 days.
