I work right by Fosters so I look at it daily. Today the snow was wet in a couple of places by the beach where the springs are.
I wonder about The Zumbro…I’m looking forward to fishing it within the next few weeks. Any reports?
January 16, 2007 at 12:22 am #523221Was on Fosters both Sat and Sun Ice on the north side was anywhere from 2-4 inches. South side had much more but never did take a measurement 6 maybe. The east shoreline still had some open water.

Thanks, BillJanuary 16, 2007 at 1:20 am #523250I was out on Lake Pepin today! ice was 3″ to 3 1/2″ in the out of current areas! found some small eyes! I would guess that zumbro is some what the same!
Just remember when your dealing with current! THINGS CAN CHANGE QUICKLY! stay away from points and constantly check the ice as you go!
if your in doubt about weather the ice is safe give it a few more cold days!
be safe out there!
