Waterfowl and Early Ice
« on: Dec 05, 2005, 06:10 PM »
I wanted to remind everyone that ventures out on early ice to be aware of the waterfowl situation.

just reminding everyone to be on the look out for open water spots created by geese, springs, inlets etc

thats a good rule of thumb if you see geese in an area stay away.  most of the time its a steam hole.  or just froze up in the last day or two

There is a lake in this area that almost never freezes because of the darn geese. Too bad too, its a good crappie lake. :-\
