Rain?
« on: Dec 25, 2005, 08:20 PM »
What do you think 2 inches rain will do to 7 inches of ice over night? I really want to fish round lake tomorrow but I don't want to go swimming. Your thoughts please.

Bring the cleats and the rubber boots.Stay away from feeder streams that enter the body of water.

 Saratoga ice is going away, I checked it tonight. Round lake is probably mushy also. I would wait for another freeze-up. When I was younger I used to go out dragging a flatbottom rowboat with me.  Now I just wait!

I agree with everyone.  I think it is going to be very soft.  Besides with the unstable weather patterns the past couple days, I wouldn't ecpect much to be happening out there.

well....I went. The fishing wasn't too good but the ice was fine when I got there but we must of lost about an inch or so today. It rained for about two hours while I was out there.The water on the ice was rushing down the holes.....it was like someone flushed a toilet. Thanks for the input guys.
