HookedChica and I went over by that rockpile you are talking about and it was about 3 inches of good clear ice with 3 inches of frozen slush on the top of that ice. we fished there and got a few 8-10 inch perch and a few good hits like they could have been trout. It was after the bite dropped off closer to the road we went over there. I would imagine you would be good to go a bit further, but I dont like 2 inches of ice. but with as cold as it has been it will freeze even more in a hurry. The water is way down from summer and we were only in about 20 feet of water there. We fished 12, 20 and 50 feet from shore and from the 12 to 50 it only went from about 20 to 25 feet of water, (sorry no sonar, just guesstamation)
