i hit up newton yesterday (tuesday) and don't have a thermometer but it was cold... but i have seen colder. had no problem fishing from shore on the west side, and saw people on the south east side. from my point of view the ice looked like it might have been close to the east shore, but i could be way off, and now with the weather it should be fine anyways... i had one fairly big bite, but my first fish of the season hands got to me and pulled the hook right out of the water [blush] and also saw a musky come up to shore until it saw me and took off. I'm hoping it will be good enough by the end of the month that i can catch some bass before i have to go back home to canada and just catch some tasty eye's
