Hi everyone. I have a trip planned with the family for Jan 4-6 out on the main lake and I’m hoping that we’ll have enough ice. Don’t want to have to reschedule if I don’t have to.
Any info regarding the lake is welcome for I am about 4 hours away and can’t do any recon for myself.
Good luck this upcoming season and thanks in advance.
Mike.

There are cameras on the lake if you do a quick Google search . Currently the lake is blocked out by bad weather .
Ps there should be no worries about ice this year. This will be the coldest December we have had in awhile just need the winds to die down a bit.
Good luck on your trip the ice reports will be pouring in the next couple of weeks.
This is what nippisising looks like now lol.

Hey, Stands_with_a_fish, I live on the north shore of Nipissing and I have started posting videos documenting the ice formation this year. Since you started this thread I'll post them here. I'm going to try to give daily or semi daily updates. I'm stoked for the season as I'm sure you are. Here are all my current video updates:

Thanks for taking the time to update everyone on the ice conditions
I was driving along Hwy 17 from Sturgeon last night and she was almost frozen across to South Shore. It is minus 22 C right now with no wind. Making ice.
@Deer Wrestler I'll take a pic of the lake next time I'm making a video.
It was cooooooooold yesterday! Here's the video update:

Would not suprise me if people started this weekend . I was thinking about testing Friday but plans came up . Maybe Monday I can get out a few hours.
Play safe.

Sorry to high jack your nip thread lol.

are Pickerel closed too? or just Walleye?
i'm not fishing for them just saying what i heard.... my native buddies are on fire right now!
And that's why the rest of the population will suffer when the lake never recovers.
Good on them for helping the future generations.

I will not buy it, it's just causing the problem to continue.

Wonder if they will have the bungalows out for the new year...
Any crazy sledders crossing the ice yet?

This ice test was out maybe 30 ft from shore over about 4 feet of of water. It has less ice than yesterday's test which was done closer to shore.

Note: There have been reports from other Nipissing enthusiasts that they have found much thinner ice in other parts of the lake. As thin as 1.5". Stay off the lake! Here's today's report:https://youtu.be/vmYXxbMxOBE
