Walked out to a group west of Catawba Friday morning. Ice surface was re-froze and travel was good. Fishing wasn't, they had only caught a few. Ice thickness was diminishing, one guy was on 12 inches where it was probably 19 a week ago.
Was going to go out in the afternoon over at Wild Wings / Crane Creek area, but other fisherman had to cancel so didn't go out. Not many fisherman at Crane Creek in the afternoon, they looked to be about 3 miles out. By late afternoon the surface was softening up, and the light rain was adding to it. On the drive home looking out at the Lake the ice was changing color from mostly white to mostly gray. I would expect the surface to be slushy and wet on Saturday, especially by Saturday afternoon. I did hear of some limits caught in the area east of Wild Wings, about 3 miles out.
