All canals around Napton, stockton and Long Itchington been frozen for a couple of days with no boat movement breaking it up.
Drayton been completely frozen for at least 2 days according to baliff, he says on another forum ring before traveling there to see what pegs, if any, are ice free.
Going to walk dogs around the Lias tomorrow and along canal to see how frozen that is, im guessing completely.
The fishing lake at work been frozen solid at for at least 2 days and according to people who have been working the last week <!-- s:o --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_surprised.gif" alt="" title="Surprised" /><!-- s:o -->

Ice Update - All Lakes Are Frozen Again
Update: January 5th 2010 (Happy New Year). Unfortunately all the lakes on the complex are frozen again. For further updates keep an eye on this web site or you can contact Roy Parsons on 07885 327708. Please note that the weather we've got forecast for the next week in this area is looking very cold so there is every chance the lakes could stay frozen until the weekend at least - If you're thinking about making a trip please phone before hand to ensure your journey isn’t wasted.

Drayton still frozen solid as is Blue Lias, Linear and Boddington and no sign of it thawing <!-- s:evil: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_evil.gif" alt="" title="Evil or Very Mad" /><!-- s:evil: --> <!-- s:!: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_exclaim.gif" alt="" title="Exclamation" /><!-- s:!: -->

Had a walk with the dogs round the Lias yesterday, That frozen someone has walked all over it and onto the islands. Only clear bit is right at the top where the stream runs into it and the water is about a foot deep No fishing for me then on my days off.
All canal in Long Itchington, Stockton and Napton still frozen solid to. <!-- s:evil: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_evil.gif" alt="" title="Evil or Very Mad" /><!-- s:evil: -->

Blue Lias was thawing slightly yesterday afternoon and Napton Resse is clear under the ridge and a patch right at the back of the big lake where the ducks are swimming keeping it ice free. Not much hope of the being fishable in the next few days tho <!-- s:evil: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_evil.gif" alt="" title="Evil or Very Mad" /><!-- s:evil: -->

Canal was still frozen solid, as is Drayton Resse.
Linear posted this on its site yesterday...
Update: Tuesday January 12th 2010. All the lakes at the fishery are still frozen and there is plenty of snow still covering the complex. All gates to the complex are locked and the fishery is closed to the public until further notice. For further updates keep an eye on this web site or you can contact Roy Parsons on 07885 327708. On a positive note there is rain forecast for this area over the weekend, hopefully this we be the start of the big thaw!! That being said we dont expect the lakes to be fishable this week, so if you're thinking about making a trip please phone before hand to ensure your journey isn’t wasted.

Lake at work still frozen solid, canals were starting to defrost in the area yesterday but been a bit of a frost last night so may have froze over again.
Walking the dogs after work down the lias to see if i can get a couple of hours fishing in after work tomorrow if its defrosting fast enough.

Lake at work STILL frozen solid!
Stockton Resse still frozen sold except on small part in the middle but canals in area are starting to clear slowly but surely so i maybe able to get some time in on the banks this week

EDIT: UPDATE just walked the dogs round Stockton and it is thawing but still unfishable. If weather stays warm it maybe thawed in 2-3 days. Canal is clear near he locks in Long Itcheington and a boat has come through near the Blue Lias pub.

Drayton is starting to thaw and could be fishable this weekend. Bishop Bowls is thawing and could soon be fishable
Canal seems to be clearing well in all areas around Southam after a quick look around this morning

Canal has cleared in Long Itchington so gonna get a few hours in this afternoon after the Zander. Stockton Resse a small part is ice free and fishable with 2 anglers up there this morning.
Drayton Resse has thawed a bit and reopened from today!!!!

The BIG THAW is on!!! <!-- s:!: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_exclaim.gif" alt="" title="Exclamation" /><!-- s:!: -->
