She also admitted that she wasn't feeling good and was heavily medicated

I must say, 14 degrees never felt so good!

One of my morning highlights is looking at local ponds and lakes and seeing how much ice is there. Because of the rain, there was none today. I am confident tomorrow will be a new day!!!

Looks like the new tile in teh kitchen and bathroom will have to get done next Saturday and then out fishing on Sunday...

Dang it!! I had my weather bug set to Grand Rapids, not the cities!!

mnfishman · « **Reply #42 on:** Nov 29, 2006, 11:05 AM »

Looks like the mercury is holding at 9 degrees for us here in Glenwood. Now if the stupid wind would stop so that the lake would calm down we could get to some ice making. Pretty tuff to make ice with 3 foot rollers.

Won't be long now.

Man, ever meet someone who had that grin on thier face like they know something you don't. That is the grin I have today and people don't get it. I LOVE cold weather!!!!!!!!!!

Skipper · « **Reply #49 on:** Nov 30, 2006, 09:12 PM »

That is ice boys!! Pelican Lake, that is Breezy point to be exact. There were guys out fishing on some smaller lakes off 371! If this keeps up we are set! Two guys walked out on that bay in the with a spud bar right before I took the pic. If this keeps up we will have a few opportunities for good ice SOON. Mille Lacs has a ways to go, so does Gull. I am reading 4 degrees Fahrenheit right now at my house. FIRE UP THE AUGERS!!!!!

Hey Skipper thanks for the report saved me a lot of miles..

i went up to duck lake be park rapids and made it out about 50 feet before falling though in 6 feet of water..

careful out there guys ..

zamboni · « **Reply #51 on:** Nov 30, 2006, 10:12 PM »

I spent a weekend at Breezy Pt in high school, place is bada$$. The lakes aren't even skimming down here yet, but with this weather, it shouldn't be too long now.

fishuhalik · « **Reply #52 on:** Nov 30, 2006, 11:33 PM »

Well fellas, hate to say i beat ya, but just got out today up by Grand Rapids. Had to take the 3 hr drive, but it was worth it! Got a bunch of nice eyes at my favorite first ice lake, i'll be posting some pics here as soon as i get my usb cable. Me and pops ended up w/ 11 b/t 15 and 19" that we kept, plus a couple more in the 23" range, a little too big for the bucket if ya ask me. All in all a GREAT first trip this year!!!!!

Haywood · « **Reply #53 on:** Dec 01, 2006, 09:08 AM »

Yeah, thanks for rubbing that in!

mnfishman · « **Reply #54 on:** Dec 01, 2006, 10:15 AM »

Minnewaska is froze over and rumor has it someone was out on the Glenwood end off the beach last night. It didn't freeze over solid till yesterday morning.

I did notice on my way home last night that there are about 1000 or so geese keeping a couple of holes open by the school and sheriff's landing.

I probably won't go out till sometime next week. Don't need to become a member of the Polar Bear Club!!

Otter Tail lake finally froze over last night! That's the last one to go around here, time to fire up the '"jiffy" and get the house ready to go....

zamboni · « **Reply #57 on:** Dec 01, 2006, 11:03 PM »

Well, we here in the North Star State dodged that bullet today. Gonna call my old boss in Kansas City saturday and see how bad it actually got there. Went on the KCTV5 website and they have live video feeds around town, and I 70 was messed up. I would rather have cold than the foot and a half of snow.

ifishalone · « **Reply #58 on:** Dec 02, 2006, 08:19 AM »

I agree. Bring on the ice first. Then it can snow.

amortec · « **Reply #59 on:** Dec 02, 2006, 10:45 AM »

Just a trace of snow last night,made the grass in the yard mostly white. Five degrees @6am today strong wind from north west. The lakes that I checked today are still covered with ice. FEELS LIKE WINTER NOW!!!
