That's remarkable..
I love that..I'm hoping for a Grandbaby from my daughter in Harrisburg..
My son ice fishes and has a you tube for fishing ..he's single and is a manager for First Watch in McCandless Crossings .He can't seem to find a lady that likes what we like..🤷‍♀️

my fam eats there often,we live 5 or so minutes from there,its up the hill from north park lake which is barely skimmed in places

its 43 degrees here and rainingggggggggggggggg gg

we got more rain than snow so it goes?weather man got it wrong again.as for moraine/lake arthur my motto is "you cant dress for the lake in your drive way its always colder at the lake".so we need to wait and see if muddy creek tightens up.with the warm water influx who knows?uasually its cold water influx thats why it freezes first and frozen last, my opinion false news not fact checked.its now moving from first ice to midwinter doldrums,lots of fronts and jaw locking moons. oh well GOD is still on the throne amen.
GOD BLESS

I'm assuming the whole east side of the lake is open water again??

Mostly snow all day up here until the afternoon. Some sleet mixed in with the rain. Who knows what the lake will look like, but I'll take a look tomorrow.

Thanks. Looking more and more like my chances will be better at heading up to Edinboro lake on Feb. 11th

Isnt edinboro one of the last to freeze with all those springs it has?

Mknott · « **Reply #127 on:** Jan 26, 2023, 06:41 AM »

I know back in 2020 it seemed like edinboro lake and Howard Eaton were the only ones to freeze over well

Arthur was high winds and waves this afternoon. We lost some of our slush cap. Snowing like a banshee when i left.

I actually used to work as a sever at the cranberry first watch for 12 years..I'm retired from that now..
My husband and I sold our place in Evans city..and moved 5 miles above I 80..
Love it up..rugged terrain and private 1/2 mile long driveway..on 15 acreas..
A cottage in the middle of the woods..plenty of wildlife..my kind of living.

We have 5 inches of snow up here right now..oil city rivet is open now..no more ice chunks. It would be nice if Conneaut lake froze over..
Sugar lake is small,..but freezes fast .

Salty, I've spent a lot of time in the woods near where you live now. Great area... My brother and I are looking to buy some property around there.

Salty Ice Queen · « **Reply #132 on:** Jan 27, 2023, 07:27 AM »

We have been here for 3 years now..we are up against state game lands..
I love it..the hunting is different though..I grew up on a dairy farm in Evans city..so used to open range..so now I'm in the middle of the woods..a whole new ballgame.

I really thought we were going to have ice soon, but based on the weather we had this weekend and what I see in the extended forecast, I’m starting to believe the people that were saying we aren’t going to get back on the water again this season.

Salty Ice Queen · « **Reply #136 on:** Jan 29, 2023, 05:49 PM »

I'm not sure either..
Every year We like to go ice fishing on the local lakes on valentine's Day. 2015..was a no go for fishing..my first year in Venago County was Justice lake. Looks like 2023 may be a no go for valentine's Day.😒

jaeger80 · « **Reply #137 on:** Jan 29, 2023, 05:51 PM »

Never know what's going to happen... The weather "experts" change the forecast 5x times per day. Just have to wait and see...

Salty Ice Queen · « **Reply #138 on:** Jan 29, 2023, 06:12 PM »

Your absolutely correct.
If things tighten up. We could have a couple weeks to fish..breath some fresh air and enjoy the moment. 😊
