Ice is coming
« on: Nov 11, 2018, 06:02 PM »
Have 2.125 inches on the local perch pond.  As soon as she hits 3 inches I'm out there fishing.

Pelican Point had a sheet of ice on it yesterday, with a high of 51 today and 50's the next three days, think the waiting might be a little longer!  ::)

No waiting here, solid 3 inches on a local pond.  Was out yesterday and I'll hit it up tomorrow as well.

Hammer1down, how do you like that lowrance fish finder? I'm in the market for a flasher alternative and have been looking at the lowrance and Garmin portable kits...(don't have the $ to shell out for a Vex)  Been leaning towards the Garmin Striker 4. Let me know what you think!

The Lowerance isn't a bad little machine.  Takes a little bit of tuning for different bodies of water.  If you are fishing real deep I can't get it to really pick up much and the screen fills with lots of "static".  Up to 30' it's running really solid though.
