Well BP, if you're on Sodus on the 23rd, I'll be on my little pond at least a week earlier. The 16th? Wow I hope so.
I predict that if we have conditions like the last 2 years, I might go insane or just sell my stuff and buy a airboat.
Last year was REALLY early on the lake I fish and it lasted all winter but it was kind of freaky ....its a relatively small lake and it was so windy. that while we were fishing on 6-8" of rock solid ice in Dec, the middle of the lake a couple hundred yards away didn't freeze until February ....we would be fishing and watching open water within sight.....
