I wish you luck, I'm heading to raquette as we speak and from what Ive heard its still open

On the bright side I tied some new streamers to troll around and its supposed to be about 50 tomorrow. Just breakin chops here, but you could end up in friggin canada looking for fishable ice.

well just got back from my trip nothing good to say. found some ice but it was so warm windy and rainy that the shore was broke up. friend of mine managed to make it out a about 30 feet and there was about 3 inches hoping some cold weather comes in and freezes the shore back up

EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THAT VIDEO ON FALLING THROUGH THE ICE LOTS OF HELPFUL INFO.

nypike · « **Reply #8 on:** Jan 05, 2007, 09:19 PM »

any ice around the tupper,saranac lake area is definately not to be trusted.. the 3.5-4" that was on raquette pond 4-5 days ago is gone completely,wide open lake. 50's and rain today same for tomorrow....

if any one finds ice I hope they watched the video first...

STAY SAFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Willbilly, It's the truth....There were a few of us there....Myself, Coldbum, Hood, Pikie, Beerman, Bigcatch81, and CS22....it was an honest 5-6"...but it was pretty squirrely to say the least!

Bussman · « **Reply #18 on:** Jan 06, 2007, 09:41 PM »

I went for a ride with my 2 sons to check things out today and we found a few places that really were a surprise! I guess I must have missed you guys but I can confirm this story anyway

There was 5-6" out there. In the morning it was great ice but as the day went on it started to get scary. We would get 7 guys together to shoot the sh*t and then the ice would crack right under us. Talk about scatter.

Then with all the rain and warm weather we were having you could see the ice changing colors. Theres ice out there you just have to search for it and be a little risky. But if your going to be risky make sure you have safety gear. Everyone of us had our safety spikes, a few of us had life jackets and some rope. Stay safe and tight lines.
