Well its fairly slow on the MN Board. Figured I would start a thread now that its October on what peoples predictions are for the upcoming winter; first ice? short, long, early, late, first snow?, will the groundhog see its shadow? Okay but seriously just thought I'd get some activity going over here.. I realize Minnesota has several other very popular fishing forum websites that probably take people away from here.
First Ice - not soon enoughSeason length - too shortFirst snow - too soonIce out - too soon.Fishing success - could always be better.Mark
I predict this site will be full of who's auger is the best. Who's drill is the fastest. Who's battery drill has the most power. How many different size drills should I have and is 6 '' better than 8 '' or should I get a 7 3/8 ''.I say nut's drill a hole anyway you can and lets go fishing.Like Dale Earnhardt said " Put up the Money and drop the flag "
What's wrong with the one you have now ?Just asking .
You guys getting some snow? Wheres all the pictures?
Never got above 29° here today, low for tonight is around 20°. 10 day outlook is also looking at below average temps for my area.
Reported 1below in I Falls this morning. Redneck I probably don't have to tell you to be careful on new ice . Just a reminder use your spud.
If the coming cold stays for the winter I would hope to be on one of the wright county lakes by the weekend after thanksgiving or at the lastest the first week of December. Last year my first day on the ice was December 12th. earliest I have ever been on the ice here in Wright county was November 28th a few years back.
