I have heard ice thickness reports ranging from 10 inches of ice to 4 inches of ice. there is snow on the lakes now and there are most definitely some areas with less ice. We are hearing of snow machines on the lakes now,\u00a0 as well as quads.

The good news is that we see very cold air coming in now and it appears to be staying with us. Winter is finally here. AGAIN, exercise caution for a while longer, watch for others and ask questions. But it does look very encouraging\u00a0 now, finally.<\/p>\n<p>SATURDAY, JAN 25, on Long Lake the first ice fishing tournament will take place. it is called the FISH FRENZY OUTDOORS tournament and has been around now\u00a0 for several years.
