limeyangler Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 What the hell....24C today....21C yesterday Have not been able to get out on the ice because of other commitments and dont think i will get out again at this rate! Even when i did have time, it meant Jack would have to come....his rubber boots are only 7" high and the water on the lake is about that if not more. Early spring was awesome cuz Jack has been getting out lots on his new 4 wheeler he got for his Bday.....great fun in the sun while we wait to get the boat out. THE BOY IS A DEFINATELY GONNA LOVE GROWING UP IN NWO <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kFdUU0K27Sg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leecher Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Simon, been 23C over here this weekend and it's not going to be any colder this week either... giving up on ice fishing and waiting for mother nature to sink the ice on the lakes so that I can target the shoreline for trout Here's to hoping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grt1 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 +20s up here too Simon, the ice seems to have lifted and is turning a very dark colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limeyangler Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 +20s up here too Simon, the ice seems to have lifted and is turning a very dark colour. Awesome. Yup....ice lifting here too, should drain the water off quick. Rain and wind forcast with the hot weather should do a number on the 18" that we have out the front of the house.

Rod Caster Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Nice quad! Thoroughly enjoyed my day! The Ottawa river was down by a good 6-7 feet so the banks were bare, exposing the stuff that is typically submerged. Found some lures, cool rocks, old railroad stuff... But no fish. Oh well... Its something special when a single long sleeve shirt is TOO warm in March! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the comment about the water levels on the Ottawa, man that's only bad news :-( I bet the bbqs were out in full force in Ontario this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking maybe they were just controlling it upstream to allow for the huge influx of runoff water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishfield Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Nuts.. I had to roll the runway yesterday before it got too dry. Usually a job done the first week of May or so. Really screwing up my spring schedule.. I know that for sure, I'm gonna have customers wanting their airplanes out a month or more early as well and that just isn't workable right now...

Bob Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Better a little sunscreen than big heating bills. I was sleeveless while raking the yard today. Spring cleaning early and more time for fishing. Our lakes are still ice covered but it won't be long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAsin Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Not gonna lie Simon but I would have been happy with this weather had it hit the start of April. Had quite the trouble getting the skidoo into my little trout lake Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
