Posts: 49 | With northern IL and WI temps dropping so fast what's the chance that southern WI lakes will still be open and fishable next weekend? Temps were 44 at the lake I fished last week. | ||

Posts: 556 | No Problem--- I am north of there and I think we are probably 2 weeks away even if it stays cold-- But looks like a few days of even above freezing at night on the way so you will have no problem,,, | ||

I know it shouldn't but it still surprises me that Monona is wide open. Just got in off the lake where I live in Oneida County and had between 3 and 4 inches of hard ice. Only open area was where the channel flows under the bridge. Supposed to get down into single digits tonight, should be making more ice. | |||

Posts: 612 | 7 degrees this morning by me were done boats in storage. Maybe fish 4 perch once the ice thickens enough. Very cold November - late October. | ||
