Just got back from Ririe. Like was said, edges are soft, give them a wide berth! Other than that the ice is thick. I did go through where the 4 wheelers broke through at the ramp. Figured it would be ok. Just went in to my boot top. Got on the dock and went out 10 feet and it was just fine. Ice is about 12-16" thick at the various spots I tried. Had a few small groups come by, 6 hits, 2 solid ones, couldn't actually set a hook on any of them though. None of the schools stuck around for more than about 30 seconds or so. Saw one koke landed and lost some bait to what was probably a perch. Fished from 5 to dark.
