That sounds encouraging. I just hope that if we get something in November that it stays.

Don't get too excited boys.  I want ice as much (or more) that the rest of ya.  We haven't even had our Indian Summer yet, tho.  Heck, it seems like we hunt at least 1 weekend of 2nd shotgun season in shirt sleeves every year....

Yep, that was enough info.  Had it narrowed down to a couple people.  I'm a 1988 grad. I'm sure you'll be able to figure out who I am.

HAHA....YUP. 

Remeber when you and Moody and Lance came out to hang with Jacobsmier.  Lord that was a lonnng time ago.  Funny thing...had to pull an old annual out to figure out who you were.  Then  on the way back from lunch, I saw that guy you wrecked down at the bar that weekend. 

My brother lives down in Perry now.  I'm hoping to get some fishing in IF there is ever enough ice down there.

Man I feel old, let me know when you make it down to see your bro this winter and we can try to meet up.  Tell Jason hello for me.

WITHOUT A DOUBT.  Walleye propulation at Big Creek was pretty decent from some people I talked to.  I'm going to do a lot of fishing this winter.  Taking off some time in December...like most of it.  I really want to get a perm. house up at Boji for January and Feb.  But I like mobility...I'm going to try some spots around Des Moines with Jason too.  I would really really like to find some of those private ponds I hear people talk about.  I saw some crappie pix from last winter from a pond near Des Moines...huge.  I'll let you know and we can throw a few back and tell good lies.

I NORMALLY PRODUCE ENOUGH TO HEAT A 3 MAN...LOL 

Speaking of hot air...Dyin time is near!!  Those birds are going to pay tomorrow!!!  LOL.

Hunting in Iowa and SD and NE for out of staters is getting spendy...almost $100 for a license!!??  And to go from Nebraska to Iowa is not a huge jump in quality of bird numbers....or football programs (pretty sad when UNI is the highest ranked Sagarin team in these 2 states)  I'm taking it out on the ditch parrots tomorrow.

I think this year is looking to be one of the Warmest Novembers on record.  If I dont have skim ice on the pond by the second week it will surely be a rotten year.........Call me a pessimist.......It isnt looking good folks :embarassed:

You pessimist!  lol.....

Gotta stand with you on this one.  Seems to me that hunting in t-shirts (deer or pheasants) has boded poorly for fishable ice.  I'm going with Dec 12th here in Nebraska.    Nights are still pretty warm.  Sucks.

Well it ain't quite November yet but its suppose to be 70 today.  Fine for trick or treaters but not much good for ice. Kinda thought I'd put the boat up but guess I'll hold off.

Funny thing is I read in the paper today that theyre predicting above normal temps till December then Dec-Feb is to be below-average with "super chilling" periods.  Does that mean -20 for a couple weeks in December?  I HOPE SO ;D

I remember about 3 or 4 yrs ago?? ????? driving out on Clear Lake December 24th, 11 inches of ice.  Lets hope it gets like that again


Even though this is 10 days away I like the forecast from Nov8th on out.......

Crappie Buster, if that forecast holds up you may have a whole lot of new friends.  I will be one of them heading that way if you get ice that early.

 Well Crappie it felt cold enough on Clear Lake last Sat. in the boat. Caught a few yellows and one eye then left after dad froze out.
Bring on the ice and a warm shack.
