limeyangler Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Hi all, At 7am the lake was shore to shore ice. Looked out again at around 4 pm....WOW....THE WHOLE BAY WAS OPENING UP! I expected another week at least before the ice started to shift with a purpose...oh well....not complaining. Now i'm really behind on my to do list! GOT SOME PICS OF THE ICE COMING OFF OUR BAY TODAY <a href="http://s907.photobucket.com/albums/ac273/limeyangler/?action=view¤t=IMG_2468.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac273/limeyangler/IMG_2468.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s907.photobucket.com/albums/ac273/limeyangler/?action=view¤t=IMG_2487.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac273/limeyangler/IMG_2487.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
mercman Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Man you live right next door to God Awesome country.
Joey Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Beauty shots Simon. It's amazing how fast the ice can melt.
chris.brock Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 yeah, you're lucky to live in an awesome place, we're jealous down here in the GTA
Leecher Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Oh ho, someone's in need of help with a certain todo thingy Seeing that you are so close to water.... may I suggest that you go fishing in the morning and attack the todo list in the afternoon Just a suggestion Jacques
Handlebarz Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 awesome pics you sure do live in a great place
splashhopper Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 the pics are surreal.... Your little guy must really like ice fishing.... he even took a piece home with him
fishnsled Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) Great shots Simon, looking forward to your open water reports. Edited May 1, 2011 by fishnsled
Blue Lk Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Simon,is the "goon" all ice free now? I took these pics just minutes ago from my deck,it will be a couple days yet before I can do some trout soaking. The ice is doing a job on my allready broken dock,but it is on the list for this year along with a new deck at the lake.
brad_001 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Awesome pics! I wish I could have been at my cottage to see the ice go out this year.... to do list; catch 1st open water fish of the season ...........get on it

Hey Rick.....ice is taking a real beating this afternoon with the gale force westerlies. The whole bay is clear as of 20 minutes ago and the ice is gone as far as the main body of the lake....definitely done by next weekend. IN FRONT OF THE HOUSE THIS EVENING AT 5:45pm By the way....nice to meet you the other day at Crappy Tire
Whopper Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 Good for you Simon but I was hoping the ice out in your area or just north wouldn't come until the 14th
limeyangler Posted May 2, 2011 Author Report Posted May 2, 2011 Good for you Simon but I was hoping the ice out in your area or just north wouldn't come until the 14th WHY?
irishfield Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 Phil loves to see the float plane pilot sweat while he lands between the ice sheets!
Whopper Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 WHY? Selfish reasons I guess. I'll be at Little Vermilion just north of Red Lake for the walleye opener and from past experience the closer to ice out the better the fishing, or should I say catching.

Whopper Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 ahhh...gotcha.....erm...you do know opener is 21st? Yep I know the opener is the 21st but I have a couple of friends going in a week early to harass the pike before I get there, I guess I'll have some catching up to do
