Thanks for reports guys, I didn't fish today but I drove from lakeport back across the beach and up to constancia for something too do, instead of buying a truck too haul my gear this fall, because my station wagon died a couple yrs ago, {my camry can't haul my gear|....I bought a sled too keep at the lake with my gear , thought that will solve my problem and wouldn't you know it, that lake froze as jagged as I've ever seen in on northshore, just my luck, that lake needs a good 2 feet of snow on it now too cover that stuff up for sleds.talked with a lot of people, everyone said tough bite today. southshore was much smoother ice, like night and day compared too northside. for all the guys that walk out of apps, now that I have a sled if snow ever gets deep, i'll pack a nice path for the walkers.
A nice path?? How about a nice ride?$$ You name it😉
Saw people all the way out by grassy and was gonna try to catch them but missed them when they came in. They were walking on the ice where it didn't have all that crap pushed up. Brave souls, all of that was open water before the cold snap, but I have to believe it has frozen better than that packed up ice. Going to try to see what's shaking today if I can catch anybody coming in after work today.
Anyone have any morning temps today near Oneida?, Reeleyes? I had 18 below zero this morning, 6th straight night in arrow below zero for me.
only place I ever took a drink was behind spruce grove walkin out too the pinnacle, got too be careful near constancia, those islands and pinacles must create currents that freeze funny.I'm always careful over there. heard a bunch of guys fell threw the crack at lewis last night, she busted good, few rescues in the whiteout..(Image removed from quote.)
I had - 10 at 5 am and it has warmed up to a balmy 4
I'm up to minus 4 right now, could be our high. surprised you weren't colder reeleyes I was expecting you too say minus 10.
Any reports out of Apps ? How's the ice ? Machines a go or no go ?
-18 here this morning!!!
