Very little snow left here and the ponds are mostly open. Too bad we didnt have some other fish beside yellow perch. The geese are flying over in great numbers today and the air is full their honking. Hauled the brush off the gardens and started spreeding the deer repellent. The lawn is turning greener every day and the frost is hanging on in the shady parts. It's time for everything to start over again.

It is going to go fast.  No base to the snow.  We'll be open water fishing in 42 days for sure. ::)
I'm just here to read what all the experts have to say.

In my opinion, this was an exceptionally good year for conditions, Team Maine IceShanty posts, topics and pictures. I'm really looking forward to the banquet.
