jedimaster Posted May 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 ALgonquin ice is all broken up but still not passable..... looks like its going to be a matter of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 (edited) Yes... that's Temagami Marine's boat launch in Inlet Bay.. Generally the first area for the ice to let go with Lowell Lake pouring into it and were Darren from Lakeland Airways first stages his Beaver at his Mother's dock waiting for Portage Bay to open up. And speaking of the Portage Bay.. which is just North of Inlet Bay with the PPark separating them. My neighbour rode his sled over and checked how my docks survived the winter yesterday!

Dan668 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Crappy weather tomorrow. Anyone going to be out on gbay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Cliff Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I was hoping to get out today but with NW winds of 35k gusting to 54 for the Lindsay area I might just delay my first trip out this year until Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Inlet Bay today on Lake Temagami.. again, one of the first places to let go on the lake. This looks like about 3 days to go.. .the rest of the lake will be a week plus behind that I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishfield Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 -C temps at night aren't helping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parnelly Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 -C temps at night aren't helping! Indeed. From what I have seen documented over at Ottertooth, this year might make the record for the latest ice out since 1986. Of course thats other than the 2 years they dont have documented.

irishfield Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 A slow process when it refreezes every night! They now think the Bay might open by Friday and the rest of the lake generally a week later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeytier Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Laker lake opened up around here on Monday/Tuesday...spent yesterday trolling the ice line with no luck...good to finally be back on the softwater though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Inlet Bay is now open... gas dock is in. The rest of the lake, still using the air boats and walking beside canoes to get to their islands on Lake Temagami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucktail Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 keep the updates coming Wayne we will be up there on the 20th , feeling a little better now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parnelly Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 I heard they were breaking ice up there yesterday with boats. Dont think you'll have much to worry about come the 20th. I'm still hoping the 16th is a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) As of 3 pm this afternoon, Portage Bay is almost ice free from Town out to the O'Connor Island flasher. My neighbour checked my docks for damage this afternoon.. this time in a boat. NE Arm is still locked up... but should go in a few days.

Parnelly Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 I heard a lot of it broke up today. Many from bear Island are putting boats in today as well. Looks like I'll be good to go come friday for the drive down to cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
