There is no true safe ice for me to report at this time. I have heard that Mile Arm Bay on Black Lake has 5 inches of ice but can not confirm it. I believe there to be 3 to 4 inches on Lake View but there is snow and slush on top of it. I would stick to river fishing for Steelhead at this time and wait for good ice. Remember its better to wait a week and stay on top. The Salmon River and the Oswego River have been fishing very well. There have been some very nice steelhead and brown trout caught from both of them recently.
