So it's getting to be that in between time of year. Small game seasons are winding down and closing and the ice is disappearing fast, but still lingering in places. So the important question for this weekend is do I break out the canoe on the newly open water, or do I head north to hit some of the last remaining ice? I hate crowds and I just worry that all the nice northern lakes are going to be PACKED this weekend with people trying to fit in one last trip. I also hate the idea of packing up the ice gear this early. So whats everyone else doing; traveling or starting your open water season?
