Yep I love it also. When the clouds lifted off the Grand Mesa there was plenty of snow revealed. Here is a new shot of the Black Canyon area.

It won't be long here either, calling for lows below freezing for the next 7 straight days, and 1" of snow possible.

30-45 days out from hard water in our neck of the woods if the weather we've been having lately holds. My guess is 7 or 8 weeks from now will be my first trip out on the hard water for 2018-2019 season.

I am thinking about 3-5 weeks for me. I have ice fished on November 7th before and it was 6" so I could be on 4" sooner.

Very nice, alot of our bigger reservoirs are getting into the 50deg range right now also around here. Crappie/perch have been migrating to deeper water for a bit now and the trout will be putting on the feed bag in the shallows anytime to stock up before ice

It snowed here in central iowa this morning. Our lakes are probably around 50 degrees yet

Musky is right... it’s coming.  If it weren’t for elk/upland bird hunts, I’d be going nuts waiting for ice.  Can’t wait!!
