Over-At lease for me
« on: Feb 27, 2021, 09:36 AM »
Well it looks like spring is around the corner and open water more likely than ice before I’ll have a chance to get back out.

Just pausing to say thanks to the guys that share advice and provide updates on condition, reports etc.. and wish you all a safe final few days (hopefully weeks).  Best  of luck in the next season.

God bless and stay safe.

I might get out once or twice but I just haven't been fired up about it this year. The times I have been out were pretty bad for the most part and I find myself looking forward to spring.

Well, it’s officially OVER for me!

[/youtube]

Fished our private pond on Monday after work. Ice was fine- measured 13”. Went back yesterday and was shocked to find only 7”! 😳 (YES! Lost 6” in 24 hours!)

Spider was SPOT ON! All that white ice turns to $&%# FAST!  ::)

Gotta get the kayak ready now!

I got contractors coming to my house to put on a sunroom next week, right where I keep my kayak for the winter. Gotta move it out of the way... maybe I'll put it on the truck for a week ;D

Those projects sometimes take a while Spider.  Might as well just keep the kayak in the truck all year.  Send me a text picture of the sunroom when done.   Thinking of one myself.

I packed my ice gear away last night, all except the sled... I got repairs to make. This afternoon I'll dig out the kayaks and get them ready for open water!

I hit Promised Land Tuesday morning. I took my boot with the chain ice cleat and rubbed it four or five times on top of the ice; I took an 1 1/2 off the top of the white crappy stuff. Figured that was the last trip.
Put my stuff away Wednesday morning.

Putting my gear away tomorrow. The one thing I am going to do is remove my blades and send them out to be sharpened.  I have been putting it off and then when the season starts I remember but say oh I’ll do it next year. Well tomorrow is that day.
