Just got back from a scouting trip to Causey. The whole lake is covered except for a few little spots (springs?) down the boy scout arm. I made the trek out to check ice, to see how thick it was. All around the bank the edges are soft and wet. I made it out about 3 feet onto the ice and cut a hole, 3". Walked about 5 more feet and cut a hole, barely hit 2" on my spoon. That was as far as I went, since the ice was already making some noise with me out that far. My guess is that another 5-10 feet and I would have been swimming.
A few more days and I think it will be fishable. JUST BE CAREFUL, cause we all know the lakes don't freeze evenly.
I also noticed on the way up that Pineview was about 85% capped, but had lots of open water in small pools.
