If I want to fish that is....Massachusetts Central West (Leominster) is definitely out of commission till maybe February? Even the hill areas of Ashburnham up to Rindge NH are very suspect for fishing. Worked on ice
fishing gear yesterday with little hope. Could drive to my brothers place on North Pond in Maine but somebody just drowned there...no thanks.
Augers maybe a thing of the past...only need a chisel were I live! Good thing I retired so I could fish whenever.
