Terry

I think I would rather have a Wilcraft

that looks good, it worked

yeah for sure I would think it is just a skim coat of ice and a feather would be too much weight for it but it's a good start

I have been out a couple of times on south part cooks bay but now I am waiting till I can get out for whitefish on the big part of the lake, hoping in a week or 2 but you never know

right here photos

I can't believe how much ice has formed in one day bring on the fish <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view&current=lake1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/lake1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

was it caught last year

with a high of -13 tomorrow I would think skidoos will be running around by the weekend

yeah I hear that tv puts on 60 lbs LOL sorry, but it seemed like the funny thing to say

yeah that pretty much sums it up but it was safe or I wouldn't be there

most motion detectors send out any beams, if you block out all but one or two which you make sure is pointed across the drive way you can cut way down on animals and leaves and whatnot making it go off but a photo eye/laser beam is the way to go

damn that hill

misfish, if we can get some ice, we can get out and catch our own they taste better when you catch them yourself.....LOL

nice I think I need to find some secret lakes myself

see my thread below for info on cooks

yeah it can make me pretty nervous too if you want scared sit in a fishhut at 3 in the morning and listen to the ice cracking, sometimes it sounds like it's coming right through the hut....

I would give it a little time I am sure that if anyone reads this and has info they will post

well got up this morning,.... always a good start to the day and decided to check out cooks bay I got to the bottom of Gilford road and saw about 30 people out on the ice well grabbed my stuff and I ventured out right off the bat the ice at the shore is broken up and you have to move fast to not go down...not a good start but I know the water is under a foot deep there as I walked I could hear the ice making noises, lots of noises kept checking and seemed to be 4/5" everywhere I came up on a slush field and when I first broke through it scared the hell out of me, but I think it was just the top crust of frozen slush that broke...I hope..did a detour around it and continued on out fished around 17 ft.... fishing was slow and I moved around a bit there was a air boat tied up out there and I think that is what broke up the ice at the shore... it was snowing real hard so I didn't want to drive home in bad weather so I packed up and headed in, found the same slush field again but made it in just fine there shouldn't be any problems for people going out as long as they keep checking as they go be safe if you go and wear a floater suit like I did <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view&current=cook.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/cook.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view&current=cook1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/cook1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view&current=cooook1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/cooook1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> was great to get out again
