It seems like this year with this el nino and the warm December, theres been more people than ever ready to throw the towel in, myself at times included. Theres an extra day in February this year, so we got that going for us.
But don't quote me on that. I have a drinking problem, I keep running out of beer. I've always been a little bit crazy, but its kept me from going insane.

Im still hopeful that there will be ice by the end of January, and hopefully less precipitation so the thin ice wont get ruined.

The single digit lows predicted by unaccuweather for January have vanished, I suspect the forecast will change 10 more times. Skim ice on Brighton millpond today.

Looks like theres ice in Minnesota and its only 850 miles away. Closer than Florida, but might take longer with the potentially icey roads. Damn weather

Was surprised to find Manistee Lake in Kalkaska County completely froze over this afternoon with 3/4" of ice at the shore.

Too bad it's going to be raining the next few days  :-\

Extended forecast for January looks promising. Temps averaging in the mid 20's. Fingers crossed.
I’m a psycho and will sleep in the parking lot so I can get out on the ice before you.

After the weather we've had tbe past 2 months, its hard to believe we might actually be ice fishing pretty soon. I wonder if the fish are as confused as I am.  ???
