It usually ony takes 3 days of zero weather to have 3",,,I think we have had that. Heard Nyona had 6"
Wondering if any one has checked the ice on small water for us southern icers. I am thinking that small sheltered ponds may be fishable by Saturday. May get to the country today and check some ponds. Will report my findings.

BTW, I got a report from one of my friends yesterday. He has 3-3 1/2" on his ponds in the Bloomington area.

I checked five ponds yesterday. Mine had just over 2 inches but it is highly exposed. The other four more than 2 inches but not three yet. There is likely three inches today. It is good ice but nothing I am comfortable on just yet. Calling for freezing rain/ snow Sunday. If it is rain our ice will most likely rot quickly.
4 inches on a pond just North of Columbus today. It is pretty much out of the wind. Brother caught about 15 nice gills.
South of Terre Haute, smaller ponds are around 4-5" currently. Obviously depends on how open they are to wind and what day they started to freeze. Some of the ponds I check were fairly late freezers though, I'd say they all have over 3" for the most part.
Your bigger lakes I doubt are safe ice, they held open water till late week.
4 inches of ice on a larger lake in NE Brown County. I did not fish just drilled a hole to check ice. I am sure it is not that thick in the larger part of the lake.
Went fishing last night in Mooresville on a 7 acre lake . 5-6 iches of ice
