Charleston Open Water

[klam]

I was hoping to find some fishable ice at Charleston today. Lots of open water. I'm wondering if it will freeze this season.

There was a beautiful golden eagle fishing or it may have been coot hunting.

It's always nice to see wildlife while outdoors.

With the mild temperature's and the water level on the rise it is common to see a fair amount of open water in that area.

Most of the time if you wade out to the ice sheet it is thick enough to fish on. A week and a half ago when I drilled a couple hole up there it was over 4" and that was before it had froze over down by the island yet.
