Went to FG yesterday and did some limited recon on ice conditions.
Linwood Bay--no ice at all.
Confluence area (see attached photo)--safe ice seems to be the same as last week in area 1. Area 2 and upper part of area 3 is covered with ice with some small open areas. I walked on the ice and it seems very solid, but near shore the ice is only about 2" thick and is probably thinner farther out. Should be fishable soon. Area 4 and the lower part of area 3 is mostly open water.
