checked the state park today, didn't measure but their has to be a good 8 inches with a little slush and some snow on top.

on a another note: does anyone have a used auger for sale in the area?

i think i'm gonna bring the atv and plow down and try to plow some lanes around my shanty. last weekend a had a good 16'' of snow

ckashner · « **Reply #15 on:** Jan 25, 2011, 03:29 PM »

i was really surprised how little snow is on my little spot....there was 14-16" this w/e with slop and water....not today...
couple inches of snow and hard below that.....mind you i was walking on it and not drilling today....I was amazed how that quick COLD SNAP
firmed it up....

Timbertrout · « **Reply #16 on:** Jan 25, 2011, 04:34 PM »

Cool thanks, well we may try it in the morning

Timbertrout · « **Reply #17 on:** Jan 25, 2011, 04:40 PM »

I'm sure there is enough, but i didn't ask how much ice is around the state park?

finlessbrown · « **Reply #18 on:** Jan 25, 2011, 04:42 PM »

sunday there was 7 3/4 inches of ice on the tape measure at the park launch. so that plus 2 days worth now

Timbertrout · « **Reply #19 on:** Jan 25, 2011, 04:52 PM »

Cool, should be another foot after the sub-zero deep freeze haha. Thanks

hunter13 · « **Reply #20 on:** Jan 25, 2011, 05:20 PM »

finlessbrown · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 28, 2011, 02:29 PM »

i tried to get to my shanty from the park and couldn't make it more than about 300 yards from the launch. lots of water and slush under i light crust when you get out a ways, thats with chains on all 4 tires.

ckashner · « **Reply #22 on:** Jan 28, 2011, 03:58 PM »

Bomo is the same. Where i fished last weekend sloppy in 1 spot,fine in another. Today in the same spot fine every where I had jacks in the samespots as last weekend but go 50 yards north & same slop as last week.

finlessbrown · « **Reply #25 on:** Jan 29, 2011, 11:06 AM »

for some odd reason most of the slop around my shanty stiffened up last night. about 4 inches of snow on top now. just shy of 16 inches of ice under my shanty, but 100 yards out from it there is about 6. from 6:30 till 10:30 i caught 5 dink pike and 1 real nice perch, set up for trout in the 15'-25' water range
