There have been a few reports from Canada and I think from some higher elevation ponds but I dont know when you guys usually get ice around your part but its been pretty warm around here lately

Just got off ice a couple hours ago in BC

Ice in lots of places. You should move or travel up north

Thick ice here in Palmer, Alaska- however the mighty Chinook winds are blowing (gusts to 75mph) as well until late this week. I'll have to head north or south for calmer seas... errrr, calmer ice that is.

Cold weather has come back to Utah and it has granted me ICE . High mountain ice at least . 1.5" to 3.5" of ice and it is getting colder .

I love to ice fish, but it ain't worth dieing for

The patch ice in the picture scares me too

We like to call it brass ball ice .

It was fine as long as you stayed away from the open water area .

yep. i had enough of the falling through the ice thing last year... i'll just wait for a little while longer, thankyou

Devils Lake,ND has ice! Most of the lake should have ice by the end of the week and the smaller bays have had ice for about a week. The smaller lakes around the area that are known for excellent pike fishing have between4-10 inches and the pike are on the bite. Hopefully we can have everything ready and be out by the end of the week.
Good Luck,
Jeff Dosch

Was up by Tomahawk WI for Thanksgiving. There was some ice in the bay out in front of My Parents house "maybe an inch", but most of the lake was still wide open. I was outside frying the turkey in a T-shirt(50's). Normally I have tip ups out while we're eating and watching football.

gaudetskie · « **Reply #17 on:** Nov 26, 2006, 04:22 PM »

Starting to see some in the bays and coves of some small ponds! Nothing that is walkable yet. 10 day forcast for Chippewa Falls says cold later this week

Hey tipdown, what lakes do you fish around Tomohawk?

saranacjoe · « **Reply #18 on:** Nov 26, 2006, 05:39 PM »

The only ICE we have here is on the puddles at the hunting camp.

Big Burk · « **Reply #22 on:** Nov 26, 2006, 09:26 PM »

didnt catch nothing but mapped out a large area for later in the season

Good ice making temps up here now and with a forecast low of -36C this thurs (-40 is -40 either Celcius or Fahrenheit)we should get a real boost. Lots of guys are already fishing the smaller lakes. Hope you southern guys get ice soon,waiting around is just too hard on a person

Hey brrrknee,

That 'was' my bearded dragon Garcia who unfortunately died a few months ago

I own a few of them...Originally from Australia, they have become really popular lizard to own here because of how docile they are...They eat a lot $:-\$ Works out in the end, everytime I have to buy crickets, I can grab my weakly order of waxies as well

Haywood · « **Reply #27 on:** Nov 27, 2006, 11:59 AM »

I had ice in my drink this weekend as I sat out on my patio in a tee shirt. This weather is getting old, fast!! My house, auger, rods, minnow bucket, it's all sitting right next to the garage door, like a lab on hunting opener.
