The Season is upon us...
« on: Dec 19, 2019, 08:32 AM »
Hey everyone,

Looking forward to another hard water season, the next couple days looks like we’ll be making some good ice. Have the day to drive around and check bodies of water, guess it’s time to put on the float suit and grab a spud bar. I’ll post my findings later, good luck all and be safe!
My passion for fishing and hunting, I owe to my Father and Uncle Art. RIP Art Rye, I will cherish all the days on the hard water we spent together and all the days in the woods. Miss you...

A couple good cold nights and we’ll be in business, me and the ol spud bar checked sandbar; approx an inch or so just off shore. Abanaki/gut was froze over but a good sold hit with the spud and it would go right through. Carry was the better ice with a couple inches right in the corner by 🦅 land. Dillinbeck was froze over also about the same as the gut approximately an inch.... so let’s hope for some cold weather and no snow get this ice season going.

Definitely be careful out there alway bring a spud in the early season. Better safe than sorry....Tight lines!

Thanks for the heads up! I’m gonna get out this weekend and do some searching as well. Small lakes and ponds should be fishable and the big lakes probably need a couple more weeks. Will post findings 👍
