Ice Fishing Report & Ice Depths

With temps at 14 in the morning then 40 in the afternoon could make someone think ice fishing. The 40’s scare me off.

Jeff do you or anbody know what ice depths are on kosh. and is it safe to fish.thought about fishing it this weekend with netmann.thanks any for reports.

Jeff, I read there was 4-5 inches on Kosh. Any truth to this?

We most certainly have to get out this year…..

After all the snow I heard it was unsafe. Give this Lake some more time to thicken up.

I heard the same thing in the bays, but after the snow I wouldn’t take a chance unless you follow someone else out. Stay to the bay if you guys decide to go. Myself will wait until after this last cold front.

Thanks for the report might try somewhere else instead.

Sounds like there have been fourwheelers on the lake. Just might be worth going and check it out off Blackhawk or Vinnie

We Fish you getting any gills yet?

Is it spring yet?? Anyone know if Newville is open by chance? The 12 ft. winter boat is aching to get out somewhere…

Hello Jeff,
Been waiting for safe ice did alot of checking last Sunday Ripley right at the launch was not safe another 15 yards or so looked like it just froze over the bay looked good though will be giving it a try Sat am. Rock and Mud I’ll wait awhile.I ordered 1000 spikes and they just came in the mail I am all set to go. I also heard kosh has been producing some nice eyes with some taking their limits.

It has been iced over in the a.m. but by the after noon it opens up. With the forcast for this weekend you should be good to go.

Thanks for the info JM, but looks like I’ll be hosted by an IDOer at Pool 4. While in the area for work, posted a request to join someone fishing Pool 4 on Saturday, and received a number of PM offers…..Isn’t this a great site!!

anybody been out on kosh yet? i will probably be out there off of vinnie on tuesday with a couple of friends.

nope, but I hear there pounding the big eyes. Just hope they CPR for some seed in the future. peace

good luck and be safe. Merry Christmas
