All local small ponds have 1/2 inch of solid ice. Temp. tonight will be 16 degrees. Every night for the next week temp will be well below freezing. Any IS member weighing just 100 lbs will be welcome to come north in a few days I'm ready to order my winter supply of spikes and wax worms. Dick
I drive over two lakes in the Concord area twice a day. Both have had some skim ice a few times already so I think once the cold hits and stays we will be locked in fast!
Doc how do you do that?
A "literal" guy after my own heart.
Well maybe he doesn't know what I drive?(Image removed from quote.)
I thought you couldn't fish for trout through the ice up there before January 1st? Or are there some small ponds you are able to fish before then?
Waters managed for lake trout or salmon are January 1 to March 31 through the ice, but most other lakes and ponds can be ice fished from ice in to ice out. There are some exceptions, such as designated trout ponds, which are illegal to ice fish on.
I saw some skim on a couple of local ponds as well. I just bought a house at 1600' elevation, and there is a pond 3 miles away. I should take a ride by when I'm there this weekend.
Congrats on the house Steph. 1600 feet I guess you are up there. You are getting closer to heaven.
Yes, Congrats on the house, Steph and welcome back to IS.Curious? Are you even eligible for heaven at this point??
Dick that means that I will have to lose 120 lbs. in a few days. Going to be tough I might have to give up the brewskis. Doc how do you do that?
I thought she was an Angel 😇 When we were fishing last year , I'd say she's eligible CD
Really Den 120 lbs. If you give up the beer i'll give up my crown. Nice Steph hope all is well have not heard from Tony in a long time.Doc no rod holders.
You got me there PG. But, I was thinking Steph was on her best behavior to impress Denny?
Why do you think I was flipping tips with her? The way to Steph's heart is cookies.
