We have had some solid ice here in northern Montana since thanksgiving. Trouble is, it gets into the 50's for a day and ruins everything.

The guys with the ice balls and the know how are making a move here in NEPA tomorrow. I'll be out Sunday morning.
FM

I'll let you test the waters, FM.I'm giving it a week or so, because theres only about an inch or so, and my ice balls aren't as brazen as they used to be.

Nice pics FM; nothing like solid blue first Dec ice. In my opinion, the only time 2" is safe. I also enjoyed the Susquehanna Cat pics. I miss fishing in PA.
