November 20th is my prediction  ;) ;D ;D ;D  3" of clear black ice and growing  ;D


Photobucket is acting up and the pics aren't too great anyway (I went after work at 10pm) but I'll be out in the AM and get some better ones and hopefully some wild brookies  ;D

Well, who picked November 21?  Did not fish, but was on the ice and drilled a few holes ;D  Just not comfortable enough to get on the ice.  Did see where some other people got on the pa lakes

I don't think there's any safe ice in PA right about now. The forcast isn't too promising for the next week or 2 either. I saw a slight chill after this storm tomorrow, but then a warm up and back into the 40's. Last week was just a tease, but it sure was fun ;D

If I can get out between christmass and newyears it is allways a plus.  That has been my goal evey year in the poconos and most years I can do it.

doesn't really matter to me if we don't get good ice again until Christmas since I'll be working every day from Friday until Christmas Eve  :-\   If we get early river ice again I'll sacrifice a few days sleep though  ;D

I was hunting up in Bradford county yesterday.  Every farm pond we were near was locked up solid enough to stand on.  these were all small ponds with very little flow comming in, but it was still nice to see hard water !!!!

Looking at the forecast for Mt. Pocono it appears that some guys will get out on or just before Christmas, if those temps hold up. Won't be first ice since some of them have fished already. I'll be waiting for the call. ;D Ten jigging rods at the ready..... ::)
