Drove by Struble this morning and there were three fellas with an ice shanty up and fishing the lake. They were about a 100 yds to the right of the boat launch, fishing close to the stump fields there. The ice has to be pretty thin still, so I wasn't going to venture out to them ! Came back later in the afternoon and there was water showing on top of the ice from the warm day. Forecast for the next week doesn't look favorable for the ice fishermen. Fish safe!

hawgcatcher was there any open water or is the whole lake ice covered. Thanks for the report, and as pickeral said be carefull if you go. That's pretty thin ice and no fish is worth risking one's life.

Thanks, maybe we will get a little wind so it will blow the snow off, they're calling for more snow on the weekend, I hate it when it snows on the ice. Good fishing and stay on top.

Checked the ice on Struble Lake today at 11:00 am, it had 2 1/2" to 3" of ice which isn't good enough for me, it's suppose to go below 10 degrees tonight so it might be alright by tomorrow.

Fished Struble today Kept about 40 crappies and a few perch. Pan size nothing real big. All caught in 10-12 feet of water. Going to try and find some better fish at Marsh Creek tomorrow.
