I dont know how thick, but I drove downtown this afternoon and there was about 6 vehicles in front of norglenwold, and one truck waaaaay out in the middle, about where the perch fishers set up their village last couple of years.
I want to know how thick it is out there, cause that's the last place it froze.
the town had a wheeled loader out building the ice skating rink, so the edges should be fine for shallow fishing now.

my friend n i whent fishing sat. and sun. n no one was there but us n the ice is thick enough to walk on but theres some weak parts thats thinner. so i wouldnt risk driving on it yet because u dont know what under thats snow unless u drill a few holes in different areas to see the average thickness. remember safety first.

I fished @ rr23 last saturday. I measured the ice @ 11.5" every hole I drilled. Also drove on with a jeep.
