Frozen small lakes., Bancroft area

Here’s a sneak peek. My wife sent me this from work couple hours ago n a foot of water. The whole lake was frozen right over with about 2-3” crystal clear black ice in the shallows…. Bet the deeper water is only an inch of ice, about to get buried in snow. There were a dozen people out there skating and playing hockey. THis was the lake I was fishing November for those big walleye and whitefish.

NOT READY YET!! Next week for sure on select lakes.

She requested anonymity due to the nature of her work. I think I nailed the expression though.

It looks frozen but let me stress, THIS IS NOT SAFE ICE YET.

Good news man! How far north is that? Thanks.

Nice. Looks like the ice is almost ready.

By the way, did she also request you do not name the lake?:-)
