| I dont know the depth of that lake but should be ok , the great lakes are 91% covered in ice a huge increase from the past.

Todd I talked to Bob Wednesday and he said they were going to make the call on March 12. He said the springs were warm, there were a few open parts on the lake, and there is supposed to be a major weather warm up.
So it's anybody's guess. |

Location: Alsip, IL | Yea couple days around 60. That's why I was curious. Shallow spring fed lake that thaws fast. Hopefully it's a go cause I'm already off all next weekend for it. Guess if it gets canceled I'll have to head to Michigan for some more ice fishing |

| There can be open water areas of the lake, but until all the ice melts around the boat ramp the site super won't take the cable down that is across the ramp.
I would be surprised if this tournament happens this year. |
