Well BP, if you're on Sodus on the 23rd, I'll be on my little pond at least a week earlier. The 16th? Wow I hope so.

Just one of those feelings I got for the season

Northern ice by Thanksgiving is always the hope but I'll say the first week in December

Right after Christmas, southern ADKs. You won’t catch me on less than 4” of ice.

Supposed to be down near 20 tonight. I can smell ice ! I think around the 15th of December Fingers crossed

62&done · « **Reply #66 on:** Nov 19, 2023, 09:35 AM »

I'm sticking to it- the 15th less than a month away now

Sounds good to me! Stay safe and tight lines!

You boys work on the ice thing for mid December...I LIKE it...! But I have to be patient this year. $:-\$

Mamma and I are headed to Florida to see our kids/grandkids for the holidays...returning New Years Eve...so hopefully we're all fishing by then.

Ice, Baby, Ice...!

Just hoping for a first week of January start ..with a mid March walk off ... any thing above and beyond that is sauce for the goose .

Real nice "cold" stretch starting Friday in central NY - now if the snow will stay away for a while ........

I predict that if we have conditions like the last 2 years, I might go insane or just sell my stuff and buy a airboat.

62&done · « **Reply #72 on:** Dec 03, 2023, 02:22 PM »

I said the 15th for which I still have hope, but it does not look likely. May have to readjust my wish list. Probably Tuesday I'll be giving my canoe a maiden voyage where it was locked up a week ago. Kinda stinks.

I'll be up there for New Years. So I guess I should bring my stuff?

Last year was REALLY early on the lake I fish and it lasted all winter but it was kind of freaky ....its a relatively small lake and it was so windy. that while we were fishing on 6-8" of rock solid ice in Dec, the middle of the lake a couple hundred yards away didn't freeze until February ....we would be fishing and watching open water within sight.....

I saw much the same. My favorite pond never had more than 5" and it only lasted a couple weeks with open water scary close to 4" of ice As you say it was a very strange winter

trapper2000 · « **Reply #78 on:** Dec 04, 2023, 04:14 PM »

fuel use was down

and i was fishing open water early

Iceman1899 · « **Reply #79 on:** Dec 05, 2023, 12:13 PM »

I am usually able to get on ice around me just after southern muzzleloader season ends. Makes for a smooth transition. Hate to be that guy but not looking good this year. Looking more like back to bird hunting for a bit longer for me

62&done · « **Reply #80 on:** Dec 05, 2023, 05:03 PM »

just saw the long range forecast on the news for the next 10 -14 days. Not looking good I guess it's back to the honey-do list

bosco2 · « **Reply #81 on:** Dec 07, 2023, 10:47 PM »

I predict I'll be perchin' out of the boat Saturday. No sense in dusting of the ice gear for a while in these parts.

BUCKSKI · « **Reply #82 on:** Dec 08, 2023, 12:05 PM »

Predicting I will go hunting this afternoon and either myself or my son will harvest a deer. Trying to get another in the freezer before regular season closes!!

62&done · « **Reply #83 on:** Dec 08, 2023, 04:34 PM »

Let us know Buckski My freezer is full and we donated one to the disabled veterans group of Fulton-Mongomery co. Put my rifle away today. Tearing down 5 tree stands tomorrow. Now I just want ice.

TheWasp74 · « **Reply #84 on:** Dec 09, 2023, 06:52 PM »

Got on today in the Adks, earliest I have ever been on the ice. Only managed 1 perch. But it felt great to be out there

trapper2000 · « **Reply #85 on:** Dec 10, 2023, 11:08 AM »

wasp nice ^5

Iceman1899 · « **Reply #86 on:** Dec 12, 2023, 02:42 PM »

Man!! Tough brake on the extended forecast. I predict I will be running out of perch/walleye fillets before I get on any ice in my neck of the woods anyway. I didn’t even buy any new ice gear this season either… I promise. No worries I have a plan. This weekend I’ll re-line a couple of my open water rigs and buy the most expensive insulated chest waiters I can find. That should be good for some skim ice at least 🤣

mcully · « **Reply #87 on:** Dec 14, 2023, 08:59 AM »

Looked again at the extended and I predict my boat will be in use for quite some time.

I know they are really only good for a few days out but holy crow they have no daytime temps below freezing for the next three weeks in CNY

krispcritter · « **Reply #88 on:** Dec 14, 2023, 10:51 AM »

I think the only ice I'm going to see is our annual trip to the ADK's.
Might get a few days in March on Chautauqua, but not expecting to.
