ODNR Fishing Report 01/12/2005: OH

Most of the ice that had formed on Lake Erie is gone. There is not any
safe ice for ice fishing and surface temperatures are dangerously low
for boaters. Use extreme caution when fishing from a boat or off of
breakwalls when water temperatures are in the 30's. Very little fishing
has been reported in the last week.
