If any of you didn't know, winter storm Herculies is the storm coming Thursday into Friday. Anyways, its gunna be cold and windy, so I think the snow should stay off the ice somewhat. What're your thoughts on it?

agreed

Let's hope it's very windy too. Blow the snow off into the woods where it belongs.

I fished a tourney years ago in Vermont in those temps. Not fun. Thought I would die.

30-50 mph winds...that ain't good for the spots that aren't locked up. Stump lock up yet?? Lincoln Woods still has open areas.

Went out towards my spot near Conn. Had 6+ solod black ice....drove by watermans - was open in the middle. Had one flag and missed 'em.

..... time to hunker down and make some chilli.

I'm going to Lincoln woods Saturday hopefully... But I fished twice today but both on small local ponds. All together got 8 flags and landed 4 fish, biggest being a 2 lb bass and caught 3 other decent sized perch. Ice averaged 4-6 inches.

Sunday may be the killer. That bad R-A-I-N word and 50 degrees... Gonna make this snow quite heavy.

glazier · « **Reply #16 on:** Jan 02, 2014, 02:53 PM »

CHEPIGUY · « **Reply #20 on:** Jan 02, 2014, 06:34 PM »

Brendog9 · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 02, 2014, 06:36 PM »

BASSRI · « **Reply #23 on:** Jan 03, 2014, 07:04 AM »

Only about 6" of snow here in Glocester- I think we are gonna be just fine!

Brendog9 · « **Reply #24 on:** Jan 03, 2014, 09:07 AM »

I'm thinking about going out somewhere soon. It's going to be miserable, but could be totally worth it. Any takers?

glazier · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 03, 2014, 12:08 PM »

I had gear all packed and ready. Woke up to super cold and super windy(just like everyone else inRI).By the time i shoveled out; I said the hell with it. Tomorrow colder but not as much wind. I will be somewhere out on the ice tomorrow

Brendog9 · « **Reply #26 on:** Jan 03, 2014, 12:22 PM »

I might try for a half day tomorrow. I have a wedding to attend at 2:30.
