Drove by struble and it was still not plowed. One guy was out there fishing though. Just backed right into the snow out front and parked. Looks like a lot of the snow blew off the ice. Tried going to marsh creek but on my way over i blew a brake line in my truck. Now I'm stuck at sts hoping they can fix it up. What a day. Save your time going to struble for a few days though. Ice looked good, parking lot... not so much

glad to help. Really wanted to get on there today but did not want to walk from the street through knee deep snow. Morgantown rd is now 1 lane bc of it all. Let us know if you hear anything panfishin. Down into the twenties and even teens this week at night. Should get thicker. Ill be there before the suns up on saturday to get it in while we can.
PS: Marsh creek is looking better, maybe worth a shot next weekend

Yes it's true, the parking lot is plowed! If you plan on going out wear waterproof boots at least 8 inches tall. Panfish and I ventured out today and it was exremely slushy, once you get on the snow pack it isn't as bad.Crappie bite was good the first 15 minutes then it slowed down. The walk back in was brutual!

Thanks for the report iceman. Glad the lot is plowed. Maybe with the low temps at night the next couple days the slush will firm up some? How thick was the ice?
