Thinking about going ice fishing this weekend and was wondering if anyone has been out already. How thick was the ice???

I have been hearing that there is 4-6 inches on most lakes now. I was thinking of heading down around the Crosley area. Any info on ice thickness in that area would be appreciated.

Thanks

I fished last weekend on about a 1-acre farm pond in Jennings County (NW corner). Ice was about 4" with a thin layer of snow in between (not ideal ice but we made sure it was safe). Be sure to check a few spots first. We've caught just over 100 bluegill since the first ice was on. Good luck!
