Not trying to snow on anyone's parade, but there is a ton of snow on that end of the lake (like everywhere), and there is a huge pressure ridge that looks like it goes from Harmon to the Muddy.

as big as WG?

                   look you you have made your share of doe plowing this year  lets have a nice 50 degree day ;D


LOL. Gerajammer told me he use to hate to see Downeast Energy coming up his driveway, but I took over that spot.  I told him with all the snow this season I was looking to buy them as soon as I had time to cash a few checks. LOL

I am ready for a 50 degree day, just not sure mother nature knows how to do that anymore.

There is snow on the big side , but only 6-8 inches vs 6-8 inches snow then 6 inches of slush on Jordan Bay Area , I went for a ride with the wife and grand daughter Sunday by my house near Squaw Island and almost got stuck 2 times , multiple slush pockets :(
I fished great shoals Sunday morning from Jordan's store out no slush pockets other than 1.5 miles out where a Guide had fished a area with 5 clients and drilled 30 holes in a small area that had some slush with 6 inches of slush. Once we left that area we saw no more slush ! I talked to a guy that launched from Nason's and he said he crossed over pressure ridge there and there is a trail leading over it that everyone is useing !! It was the same way last year ! As long as the pressure ridge doesn't sperate it should be good !!

I will make a point to go over to Nason's this Sunday and park and fish that area and report back to you all !!

Unfortunately I work on Saterday so I won't be able to attend this fun event

I will keep you all posted to my findings

Fishing is great over there. Snow is deep on the beach but lake has only 5 inches. The cusk were fat and delicious.  Boat launch has a chain across it though, so you will need to be creative.

Do you mean the whole parking area is chained off or just the launch??

Seems as though there should be some snowmobile tracks from the parking area to the ice,(which is only a stone s throw away)  to make access easier for those walking out.  :-\

I'm sorry to say, I have to work that day, but I'm sure you guys/gals will have a blast!! :tipup:  Can't wait for pictures.

You r a walking billboard now. Call the shots Brady...more Dags speaking engagements and on the clock!
May God bless and keep you always, may your wishes all come true.
May you always do for others and let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars and climb on every rung,
May your hands always be busy, may your feet always be swift.
May you have a strong foundation when the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful, may your songs always be sung.
May you stay forever young.

If my fishing buddy gets the Sat. off from work we are thinking of coming up. Neither of us have ever fished or been to Sebago Lake. Where is a bait shop close by. I have GPS so I'm not worried of finding everyone. I just started this year ice fishing for Togue and have much to learn still but I am having fun with what I've caught so far. I'll be coming from Central NH and coming up Int. 95

MIGHT need to change locations....I want to hear what you guys think

Went down to Nasons beach last night,  THERE IS a pressure ridge that goes the length of it (Not sure how people feel about crossing that?)
I didn't go out by it or did I see where anyone else had crossed it :-\  However I do know that last year there was one in the same area, and people did cross it....I however did not! ;)
Also I think we might have a parking issue, the road is narrow in spots (If only I had a bucket loader to move the snow banks back)  ::)
As it is now, we might be able to get 20 trucks in there.

Our other option would be to have the M&G at the Station.  I know it gets busy there on the weekends but at least there's a decent parking area, easy lake access, and a Porta-Potty if needed.

I honestly don't care where we have it, my only concern is, I'm not sure how you guys feel about going over a pressure ridge? Because I know  a lot of you are going to want to go out deeper to fish.

   Yep it has everything . Parking , access and a short walk to deep water .  It has also been a productive place for big fish .

After A LOT of consideration, and talking with some of you.  I think it would be BEST that we move our M&G to the State Park.

It seems like we're going to have a good crowd attending so we'll need plenty of parking space, and easy access for the walkers.

I'm sorry if this change doesn't work for some of you but in this case the majority rules.  And I appreciate all of the inputs I got. ;D

So it is FINAL.....The State Park  March 7th :tipup:   Hope to see you all there.....  Brenda


Now let the planning begin.......Who can bring what??  We're going to need a grill or two, Food, drinks, Paper plates etc.  ;D
