Hate to see the snow coming
« on: Jan 18, 2019, 04:41 AM »
Big drop of snow will really throw a wrench into our fishing. Tough to get around and a big insulating blanket on top of new ice isn't going to make for a safe time.

Sure is.

Be safe out there as I have heard of and have seen pressure cracks starting that might not be visible after the snow.

Scouted outer Mallets bay and there is a pressure crack going from mill point to porters point. Folks accessing from the community's private access should be careful if going out to the laker spots because you will have to cross it. It was only a couple of inches when observed.

There was also one forming in the typical spot in Mississquoi bay out near the channel running south to north.

Stay warm! Be safe!

Here's hoping that the wind will clean it up!
