This reply might be late if you were looking to go out today, but it was 4 inches of clear ice under a light blanket of snow today. Fishing today from 9 to 11:30 was much slower than yesterday. Still caught a dozen or so keepers plus my son's catch, but it was also colder. We hadn't intended to go out Saturday, but a friend of my son's wanted to give it a try, and I have a hard time saying no to getting a friend out. He started fishing an hour ahead of us, but only had one when we finally met up at 10, then caught only one more while he watched us catch them periodically. I hooked him up with tackle and bait, but he just couldn't buy a bite right next to us.
