as of this morning most of the small ponds and lakes had a skim of ice on them and most stayed that way all day. i know it's just a tease but it can't be long now, i'll guess about a month from now.

but until then i'll raise a glass to ice fishin the other way!!!!!!

this is my 3rd. attemp to make a post on this thread in the last 5 minutes. and i haven't been able to post now for 3 weeks. this bites and could drive one to drink, so uncle jim is here to help.

i've seen some guys going out on some of the smaller and shallower lakes around here now for 4 days. only couple inches on them but they are out trying. i'm still out hunting, so it's going to be a bit before i be going out. but i'm ready.

let's try this one more time

I agree there MR Bill  might have to have one myself  heres to you as it looks like we are the only to on board today.

Happy Holidays to all

will had to log in and out about half dozen times before it would even let me into the forum. then a couple more times to let me post. lets get real.i even sent an e-mail about this place last week and haven't seen or heard a thing from them. no wonder this place is slowing dieing.

but anyways we are getting freezing rain throu the nite. it has turned to all rain for now. but it's suppose to turn to all snow this afternoon. this will probaly slow down the ice making machine, but i don't think it will be much longer. i'm planning on going ice fishing around the christmas break from school, even if i have to go up north a bit to do it.

i wonder how apple jack is with shaved ice in it would be. can't have much thou, have to go to work this afternoon at wally world.

man it took me a half doz. trys just to log in this morning. then another 4 attemps to allow me to apply a post and this is my 3rd try at posting on just this thread. have to go throu this every time i try to post on here. i have sent an e-mail to the club. haven't heard from them or even now if they got it.

oh well, i'm seeing it's raining right now, had freezeing rain most of the nite. suppose to be back to all snow by this evennning. probaly slow down the ice making machine. but i'm planning on going out ice fishing during the christmas break from the school, even if i have to go up north to do it.

i wonder how shaved ice goes in apple jack. but can only have a little bit because i have to go to work at wally world this afternoon.

Morning Mr Bill

jerry i will take it easy on the apple jack. it's about the only thing i like that has a kick to it, so i don't want to make it were i don't like it 

people are ice fishing on the small, shallow lakes and channels as of last weekend. most are doing pretty good i've been told. ssooo maybe i can find some time to hit the ice over the christmas break.

I haven't been here in a while but I can tell ya'll we been icing since the 3rd week of November 2008 and then of course doing some ICE FISHIN DA OTHER WAY when we get off the ice.  We've got almost 18" of ice already with lots of snow.  The 'eyes have been very cooperative and the subsequent eatin' has been a'treatin'!  Great to see this thread is still active - waytogo Kinger!

I agree WW.  Its always good to keep the good threads going.  I'm just hoping to hit the ice more in '09 than I did in '08.  Guess that's my resolution.

Have a happy new years all, and enjoy 2009!

Just got off the ice and what a morning for the New Year, multiple gills in the decent range and one 17 inch rainbow. Hope this is a new start for the fishing season ahead. Now for the crushed ice smoothy apple pie before cleaning.
Keep your lines tight and feel the big bite

Great to hear some are getting and others are trying to get at it!  We went this morning hunting walleyes on Whitefish Lake and never drilled a hole.  We got out about 300yds from shore and hit slush big time.  One sled (the one pulling the tobaggon) started to bog down so we pulled up to avoid the 2nd sled becoming slushed.  We were in snow, slush then water over 12".  The bogged sled has a studded track  so we unhooked the tobaggon, shoveld the slop until the track could bite into the ice and then.  We had 2 days of mild weather enough to turn the lake into a bog despite having over 18" of ice.  We got the sleds to shore and decided to give it up for the day.  Cold won't beat us, snow won't beat us....but fighting slush can set ya back.  Good luck to everyone else and I'm hoping to drop by more often.  Kinger, how's things been around Posse Pond?  Always good to hear from you buddy!  Good luck icing in Canada.
