I joined a few other brave souls ice fishing on cheney yesterday. Caught a few nice whites, no reports of stripers so far. Fished the rubeke creek area the ice was just barely thick enough 2 inches with snow on it. When you would cut a hole the the water would flow up on the ice. The snow needs to melt or blow off so we can get some thick ice with these cold nights. I heard of one fellow going thru at the yoder point area. I don't recommend this lake until the ice gets thicker but it's still early in the year and no amount of fishing fun is worth that COLD swim. BE SAFE!! I'm going to try and check out Wilson today maybe the snow isn't as much of a problem there. Besides I Love to catch those stripers thru the ice, Merry Christmas<br><br>
