Hopefully this will be a year like 87 or 88? Fished Arnold Bay for Lakers
pre Christmas, great ice fishing that fall. Perch ponds will be frozen by
first of December with a little luck. First snow this morning, will be dreaming
of tip ups as soon as I put my boat away... :tipup:

I think I'll be on some smaller lakes/ponds before new year

The employment of effort, hard work, time, and energy put in locating fish will offend noone.

I was fishing Monkton pond on December 9th last year.... I think it will be the same again this year.
