Warning if you're going to poison creek!!!
« on: Dec 30, 2011, 06:32 PM »
I was up there today and just before I left I found a hole big enough for a guy my size to go through!!! It's off the boat ramp, slightly right-ish and about 100yds out. It didn't look like a chainsaw hole, and it's not enough to keep me from going. I was trying to figure out how to mark it but with all the water on the ice and the wind and rain...I couldn't come up with any markers...It's supposed to freeze and snow tonight...just be careful.

Out off the boat ramp about 150yds there was at least 10" of ice. This warm weather is going away so no pauses in our season...see you all up there...

How much longer did you stay Hogger? That had to be among the most horrible day I have had on the ice.... The holes looked like toilet bowls flushing! I may try sunday but will leave the 4 wheeler home if I do.......

Chief, did you do very good at Sugarloaf? Hope it ws better than Poison Creek the other day. Let's plan a trip on Thursday or Friday when the weather cools down and the ice is better.

Hey elkcrazy,
 I actually headed to the boat ramp within 15mins of you pulling out. Now I wish I woulda been dry enough to stay up there. Got called into work last nite for 12 long hours with one 15 minute break...that sucked and blew (if you remember your comment about the weather on the ice, LOL)
