There's a chill in the air....

Was 39 deg. when I left the house this morning, thats only 7 deg. till water stats to freeze. I know that the water temp is warmer and that its still a ways away but it doesn't hurt to wish for it, lol.

Mother nature starting to tease us Wiley! When I drove by the neighbors house, I coulda sworn I saw a bit of frost on the neighbors roof, either that or a mirage..

The one good thing about these cold temps at night is they cool the water and prime it for making ice when the time comes.  The leaves are starting to turn at my house, another good sign.

Nice thing about Alaska you could ice fish by end of oct. but also needed an auger extension by jan.   Well I got 8 days left then im home free.  Not going to lie I got nothing but archery season on my mind tho rate now.  Anyone else archery hunt?

clhuff, back in 97 when I got out of the Marine Corps it was just in time for archery season, I spent every day for two weeks in the woods. I had some close encounters, but never did arrow a deer, however that season is probably what I would call my best archery season ever.
Hope you enjoy your first season back.

10-4 on the archery, it's a good time to sit in a tree thinking about ice-fishing waiting for the  "BULL OF THE WOODS" to appear.

Yea any more ther are 3 seasons when October hits.....Archery season, Rifle season and Ice season. My daughter hunts with me for deer and this year the wife and kids say they wanna go out on the ice with me to try it......we'll see.

 :)36.6 and frost on the roof tops!  She's  getting  closer! 

[Chris338378]

It was 33 with frost yesterday morning and they're calling for the same today.  That sure gets the thoughts of being on the ice going and says it's coming.
