The Ice Man Commeth!

is there ice or not! whats the scoop are there people fishing?

Not enough safe ice to warrant non-locals to start wondering out... I've seen some reports that the Sandusky Bay has some ice close to shore thick enough. Many locals fish less than 25-30' offshore for perch there.

East Harbor has some shanties on it I hear and they are catching some blue gills I suppose.

One guy tried to take a snowmobile out of Catawba I heard yesterday... He no longer has that snowmobile.

No, for the most part the ice on Lake Erie is not safe, nor really even formed yet. There is a slight crust of really thin ice in parts of the Western Basin. Most of it is all still open water.
