As of 1-7-15, the ice sheet on Lake Winnebago is forming quickly with the cold weather.  Winds have hindered some of the development for the last several days.  Looking at the satellite photos, open water is seen from Neenah extending over toward Stockbridge along the north shore.  There also appears to be an open pocket near Fond du Lac.  Over the past week, some fishing activity has started on Lake Winnebago, along the western shoreline.  Please understand that the ice thickness on Lake Winnebago is extremely inconsistent, and in most cases newly formed.   Stay tuned for more information.
