got another foot of snow last night, and still snowing >:( >:(. all we can hope for now is that it slushes up, and freezes. one day of 40, and rain next week, and cold after that. there is still hope.   Sully...

Haha your a funny guy.  She's far from singing and Oneida will be fine.   All the snow has been blowing off her and cold is on the way. 

Actually I just got done snow blowing think I'm gonna go out on the old girl for the morning.

at this point m hoping that the eyes will be in the canal/ creeks before the close and maybe be able to get a few that way. looks like a giant slushy out there now.... well at least an easy winter for the deer at least south of the lake effect area...

Haha I find it funny all the characters on here marking off the season. It's almost as if they want Oneida not to freeze. Internet experts everywhere

I liked shanty when it was about fishing, having a good time and keeping other anglers informed of conditions for safety reasons.  These days it's more like a middle school cafeteria with the drama and trash talk.  Anyone of us would engage one another in conversation and help each other on the ice in a heartbeat. It seems as if these cyber walls make us forget about what we are here for.

I agree.  Although I'd like to think if there was more safe ice around we'd all be fishing more and be in better moods.  Things can still change around weather wise, its still only 1st week of February.

To be honest I think that warm up is needed. It will soften up any snow on the ice and then there is a decent freeze after that. We might not get to the middle but maybe we can back on some spots the we were on a few weeks ago.

took a walk around big bay this morning with hopes of fishing for the day. "NOT" !!!!! I cut around 15 to 18 holes. there's about 8" of snow followed by 6" of slush. there's 8 to 10" of ice, but the top 6 to 8" is rotten, candled, chunks when you cut it ice !!! hightailed it back to shore, and am currently putting my hardwater gear away for the season !! it's not worth my life !! it doesn't matter how cold it's going to get. rotten ice stays rotten ice !! the days are getting longer, and the angle of the sun is getting higher. you may be able to get on some fresh ice after this warm up, and freeze, but I would walk softly, and use your spud !!!   Sully...

Big bay never opened up did it?  I was on Sylvan and it was great 8-10 inches.

Good report about bad ice and why it will probably will not get any better.  Thanks Sully.
