North central Illinois is making ice today also on my way to school citizens lake by monmouth had a skim over allmost the whole lake.

Ground is still soft, but there was ice on the garbage cans last night. The lakes are ready, all we need is a pair of nights in the low teens to single digits and the race will be on!

By the way, isn't Monmouth Southern IL?

Looking out the front window this morning there was probably 100yds. of skim ice .
This is just south of Spring lake pool 13 backwater area.

Yeah whats that all about? Nobody saying much. We all have access to the same lakes mostly and should communicate better with one another. Some people seem active though. The Wisconsin boys are making us look bad.lol

Been on here a while and its always been like this. I help when I can but I dont get to travel to other areas as much as I would like

Next weeks forecast is for 40's and some rain in my area

Lac Suel Freak · « **Reply #16 on:** Dec 08, 2011, 09:09 PM »

Maybe Christmas guys. They pushed the forecast up a few degrees the wrong way. Either way if you southern/ central guys come up this way just send a post will get pointed to a good lake and out their a few weeks earlier than your norm.

I think all of us in Illinois are gonna have to go north quite a ways if we want to ice fish anytime soon !!!!

Sounds like you have to go at least as far north as the Stevens Point area to get anything close to fishing on. Not that I don't like going up there to fish but you can't do it every weekend !!!

I just got my WI non resident license , so i could go and fish up there earlier then down here and later then up here too lol. the only problem with it is that you have to pay $50 for a non resident , what a bunch of BS . oh well, we need it to get way colder like a week in the teens and lows over night negative temps.

wedkarz · « **Reply #19 on:** Dec 10, 2011, 05:11 PM »

Saw some skim ice on ponds on my way down to champaign from chicago. But i bet it won't stick around long with these warm temps coming....

Ranger619 · « **Reply #20 on:** Dec 11, 2011, 01:26 PM »

Every little pond around the Mokena area this morning was iced over !!!!! But the weather thats heading our way won't be good for us ice guys.

Stopped by Cabela's in Hammond and met Marcum Pro Staffer Bob Horn and talked some fishin. Real nice fella.
