Went out to Catawba on Saturday. Lots and lots of shove ice throughout entire shore line. NOBODY was in the parking lot!!! Don't know of any access points to get out on the lake. Seen some open water out of Catawba. Wild Wings... Same scenario...lots of shove ice. Crane Creek... Same thing!!! To all the folks that want to come in from out of town like myself... if the locals aren't fishing, then that tells you something! Be safe out there. No fish is worth your life...EVER!!!
