NE ALLEN POND
« on: Feb 02, 2018, 10:41 PM »
Got out for a little while this evening on a local pond. 3-4" ice.  It was making ice and cracking a bit while walking from time to time.  Looking forward to a bit more cold weather to tighten it up a bit.  Caught 30+ keepers between the 4 of us but they were not really aggressive until close to sunset.   Looks like maybe another 3 weeks based on forecast.  Hope so.  Never know this time of year and all bodies of water not the same ....be safe!   We spudded and drilled and measured and it was not the same everywhere on this small pond!!

I forgot to turn my diffuser/compressor back on last night after feeding the trout in my biggest pond and the open water had no problem freezing back up with over an ice of ice.  ::)

I'm hearing rumors of a significant snowfall next week?

Got out again yesterday afternoon for a couple hours.  Was surprised there was not even a little more ice after that cold weather the other night.  Ended up with a couple large bass and a 13" crappie and maybe 40 gills between the 4 of us.  Maybe last nights cold added a little...

Buddy and I kept about 40 nice gills in 2 hours.  Figured we should get em while we can.  Some sloppy spots but we stayed where it was pretty firm. 4-5” total. Top 1-2 was refrozen though.  Gonna hit it a few more times and then probably call it quits.

Kept another 20 for me and 30 or so for a couple friends tonight.  Ice really tightened up after last night.  Going to hit it a few more times and then I expect I will be done on the ice after this weekend.

Another 30 nice gills pulled out of the pond last night by some friends.  I’m done on the ice this season.  The pond ice will go fast with this warm up and rain.  Be safe if you venture out!!
