I hope to be by Sunday morning.   Let's see if Jack Frost and the laws of thermodynamics cooperate.   ;)

Fingers crossed!
Be who you are and don't listen to others that say you shouldn't. That's how life should be lived as.

It will be cold enough.  Hopefully the snow stays away from your favorite lake long enough for some solid ice to form.  Good luck.

A lot of small lakes and ponds have been iced over for a few weeks...A lot of ice making towards the end of the week and we should see some of the bigger bodies of water get a layer of ice! Fish on!  :tipup:

Plenty up here in the Daks for those who are game for a drive, small waters and a few not so small ones have been iced for almost 2 weeks now.

Rest of the week looks awesome for ice making! Probably sneak out friday to check progress on the farm pond!
