Newton is a no go this weekend

[Kent]

Did some quick checking on ice and I don’t have a happy report. Tried my pond and spud went through in one poke. So being the intelligent guy that I am I tried it anyway. At first it held under cracks and sags, so I went out a little further and all at once I dropped right through clear to my knees and over my knee boots. Went to check Newton and it was worse the spud went through with no effort. It has a slush layer about an inch that hasn’t even froze all the way through it yet. Plus open water in some areas. No fishy this weekend, at least tomorrow. Later Jeff

So are you saying that the ice is too thin to fish on?
