alphaalpha Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 Planning on heading out tomorrow morning. Do you think it will be good to go. I am just walking on so I'm sure there will still be lots of ice for that but will the edges to get on be screwed after all this rain? Just don't want to waste a couple hours driving up there if we cant even get on the ice. Thanks, AA
Fisherman Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 Shouldn't be a problem, -8 tonight will firm things up. I would recommend cleats.

alphaalpha Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Posted March 6, 2011 Thanks for the replies. I haven't decided yet where we are going out of. Maybe IBP. On my phone at the moment as I'm out for the night. Will post where we are heading out of if you want to stop by and say hi.
beginner Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) I was there today caught two whities but man ita hard to move due to too much rain.. I drove my car by the way, just make sure wear a rubber boots you dont wanna get the water into ur feet.. Edited March 6, 2011 by bfishermen
EC1 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 Be ready for some slushy conditions. Left Simcoe at about 6 today, and by then it was snowing and there's no way in hell that it will freeze 3 inches of water overnight.
dhickey Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 IBP is no problem for me ! would like to meet new people that share the passion. my profile allows you to email me? it will be messy out there but well worth it i think! still looking for whytie this year.
NAW Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) I'm heading out near IBP tomorrow. What do you guys think.. leave the snowmobile at home and walk out?? Or bring the sled out for one last rip.?? I haven't been out on Simcoe for 3 weeks now, so I have no idea of the conditions. Can only assume they're garbage.. Edit... It's 9:30 and snowing like a bugger in Barrie as we speak. Edited March 6, 2011 by N.A.W
Fisherman Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 Just looked out the window, there's a raging snow storm right now, probably got 5cm in the last hour.
alphaalpha Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Posted March 6, 2011 My brother-in-law jus told me now he doesn't want to go for the day. As its a bit of a hike I want to go for pretty much the whole day. Salty if you want to partner up let me know. I don't really want to drag the hut and all my gear out just for me.

Left Simcoe at about 6 today, and by then it was snowing and there's no way in hell that it will freeze 3 inches of water overnight. True I got off the ice at noon today and there was 3" of standing water everywhere. It is going to be messy but there is a good amount of ice out there. I think I measured about 13" tight lines
alphaalpha Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Posted March 6, 2011 Heading home now. Salty hasn't messaged me. Anyone else up for going message me here or pm otherwise I will probably just go into work tomorrow....

alphaalpha Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Posted March 6, 2011 how mutch gear you dragin? i like to keep it simplel and lite just sent you a private message. i drag a fair amount of gear but nothing i can't really handle myself. I just don't find it worth the hassle if i am solo. I take out a hut and heater and propane tank but its pretty mobile on the ski rig that i have.
