Thanks for the report Badger. Saw you out there yesterday but my weight class needs more ice. Hoping for more cold nights soon. Good tips on reading the ice Mikey. Be safe.

Two kids died yesterday in Middlesex county. One 5 min from me in east bruns. Another in carteret. Ice down this way is 100% no go. North of 78 prob better but it's still too sketchy. Unless February brings a vortex I'm not too confident on safe, consistent ice this year. Luckily and selfishly for me I'm nursing a fractured right wrist so I'm biding my time and glad I'm not missing much lol.

Just be safe out there guys...

tragic news I heard that too. Even the smallest ponds here just north of 78 are barely frozen, the geese making pockets of open water still too. I hope everyone stays safe. Hope the wrist heals well too, Jigman

good to hear you got out badger. looks like saturday's rain is going to kill what has been made. They are talking >1" of rain.

sad to hear about the drownings. it seems like every year there are some kids who fall through and don't make it out.

Nice job taking advantage of the best ice window we've had this year. Sounds like some solid jigging action!!!

Badger making something happen. I love it man! You got your ice fix and survived doing so. I admire your dedication to our sport. Really hoping to see you out there this year. Jig em’ up brother!!!

Reports of 3 people going through on monksville this afternoon with one person going into cardiac arrest and hospitalized.

Remember you might be able to stand if you go through in the shallows but you have no idea how your body is going to react to the shock of 32 degree water.

Be careful guys and error on the side of caution.
