Is Big Elk Creek frozen? - kentd71 - 12-07-2020

My son wanted to go to PaliSades Big Elk Creek But I am not sure I t’s frozen or not Yet. 
I’ve never fished on the stream side of the road  but would be willing if that’s the only thing that’s frozen up there. Any tips for up there would be greatly appreciated. Haven’t had a whole lot of luck up there.

They are catching on the stream side. You would do best to stay on that side. I lost a good friend years ago who fished the other side. It can be a treacherous journey this early.

Thank you. I have fished the lake usually  In February . Seems like we always struggle in a foot of snow down the hill and on the lake in the slush. I am leary fishing PaliSades just because of thin ice in spots
