Hey fellas, Waiting for first ice of the season! Wow, it’s already that time of year again! Every year the transition from open water fishing to hitting first ice is exciting. As November comes to an end and the days become a little shorter and colder. The anticipation for first ice has my undivided attention. Hopefully we have a good cold & consistent winter that will give us the opportunity to be on the lakes and ponds by X-mas. Good luck to all and I’m looking forward to seeing you out there.
Be safe,
Brian.

I like the weather outlook for the next 2 weeks. Should be good ice next weekend in the Berks. Not CT, but still moving in the right direction.

Great news, hopefully the cold weather trends stick around. Last year the week of x-mas was very mild and rainy. It ruined most of the safe ice we had prior to that. I hope that is not the case this season.

There you go! Nice one

As I sit here staring at open water patiently. ::) Let me clarify, I’ll be dedicating my time elsewhere until then…
Correct they are eating

Ugh, stinklogs and slimers ::) ::) ::) Just kidding, nice! ;D

Lol! I know I know, a life long obsession with those fish.

Not looking good. Up to 60 with wind and rain on Saturday. Boo hoo. At least I won’t feel conflicted as I sneak around the woods with a crossbow.
-
Yeah, it’s definitely not looking to good for making ice. Good luck hunting, Looks
Like I’ll be heading north Steelhead fishing again, gotta take advantage of this weather.

10 day weather outlook is promising, keeping my fingers crossed.

Anticipation!

What did you catch that last one on, leaves? Or is that the secret fly wearing camouflage? I love catching them things.........

Haha! I used portrait mode in the iPhone 12. It has a tendency to have a bit of distortion from defining the foreground and background. It does look like a leaf tho lol! Pretty sure that fish ate either an egg pattern or a black stonefly variant. No secrets here.
