Sorry, my report above with the "I was the 1st to test" was Ensnore. Still need some time. Maybe someone other than I would be willing to venture out farther as I am a little whimpy about thin ice, but the ice was very weak and bouncy. Deep water is not far out so did not venture more than 30 yards or so. Still open water out in the 170' area, geese probably keeping in open.

Just have to be patient..it will come soon. I dont want to see anybody go in or worse drown. It may be ready this weekend. I will probably drill some holes on Friday some time for a accurate report at Ensinore look for the report Friday afternoon.
I asked this weekend if they planned on having a tournament and they said not this year
Waiting for deals isn't bad..but its sad you can't replace lost tackle..or even a set of auger blades in the first week of January before the season even started. Its the big box mentality. Three months ahead of a occasion. It wouldn't. Bother me if they didnt kill the Mom and Pop bait and tackle shops. There isn't one shop left in Auburn. Yes its a balancing act.
I ordered 6" lazer blades from fishUSA and had them at my door yesterday for under $32. No gas on my end burned and quick. No tax or delivery charge. I'm done driving to BP
Don't want to turn this into a BPS bashing thread. The hope is maybe someone from the store is listening. One size doesn't fit all. There is a lot of room for improvement. It is one of their smallest stores. But does the fisherman in New York Buy Bass Crank baits in January? or Ice Fishing jigs? My point is there is room in the store to do it well. Down size on the summer stuff until the end of March. I thought the reason for hiring local sportmen was to match the needs of the locals hunting and fishing needs. Just a thought? back to Owasco I ran down the west side of Owasco after I was done working. I really dont like the open water straight across from Ensinore and south out in the middle. I know the current runs strong on that side but seems like it should be frozen back up by now. I think I will still drill some holes friday It may be fine on the the west side you dont have to go far to be in 150fow.
