There were several calls asking for the ice status on the Collins Cove. Collins Cove is the Hot Spot for ice fishing for white perch in the Mullica River just West of the Garden State Parkway Bridge. A couple of days ago, the wind had the river clear of ice. Ice has now started to form in the cove, but I don't think that we will see any safe ice very soon. If it really gets cold, maybe there will be anglers looking and testing it on Monday of next week.
North Jersey head boats have really been the only fishing that anyone has talked about. It has been very quiet here locally due to wind and the post holiday bustle.
