Joey Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 Took these at the path yesterday, looking like we'll be ice fishing by December FullSizeRender (2) by Joeyfishing, on Flickr FullSizeRender (4) by Joeyfishing, on Flickr FullSizeRender (1) by Joeyfishing, on Flickr
lew Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 I drove past Chemong Lake an hour ago Joey and northen half looks like it's frozen although I doubt you'd want to walk on it.
Joeytier Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 -15 here tonight, but with all this friggin' snow we're getting there won't be much ice-making. Early start to snowmobiling though
Acountdeleted Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 Looks very promising. I'm counting down the days.
Joey Posted November 20, 2014 Author Report Posted November 20, 2014 -15 here tonight, but with all this friggin' snow we're getting there won't be much ice-making. Early start to snowmobiling though sledding sounds good to me
AKRISONER Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 the warm spell next week is gonna knock a lot of that snow down...hopefully she refreezes back up compacted to make a nice hard crispy base. Also hope it cleans off the lakes to make the ice bare so that we can actually get out on it come december.
NAW Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 Little Lake in Barrie has a skim on it today.
misfish Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 Little Lake in Barrie has a skim on it today. Lets get out soon there bud. Good to hear from you
Mike Pike Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 Nice pics Joey! But I'm not getting my hopes up this year. Every year it's the same thing. An early freeze promises an early ice fishing season, then a thaw and back to seasonal temps and a late start to the ice fishing season! AAARGH!!!!!!!!!
Basskicker Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 There is anywhere from 4-8" of ice up here already on the smaller lakes and making lots of ice!!! Going down to into the -20's again tonight. Putting the hut out on the lake on Saturday and should have a feed of walleye by sundown!!
Acountdeleted Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 Holy cow. I drove by the Credit River tonight and there was a skim of ice on it. Whats going on?
DRIFTER_016 Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 A plane made an emergency landing on one of the lakes around here today. I guess if there's enough ice to support a Cessna Caravan I can take my sled out. http://www.theweathernetwork.com/news/articles/plane-makes-emergency-landing-on-frozen-lake-in-yellowknife/40353/ Plane makes emergency landing on frozen lake in Yellowknife Cheryl Santa MariaDigital Reporter Thursday, November 20, 2014, 7:29 PM - A military spokesman said an Air Tindi Cessna 208 Caravan declared an emergency when its engine failed shortly after leaving Yellowknife Thursday, forcing the small plane to land on an isolated frozen lake. A military aircraft with search-and-rescue officials was sent to the area from Winnipeg. Seven people were onboard and were stranded for hours in frigid weather before rescue crews could reach them. The pilot of the plane contacted airline operations at 7:21 a.m. to indicate the craft had landed "under very difficult weather conditions", Air Tindi says in a statement. The forecast was reporting temperatures around -11C with freezing rain at the time. Additional airplanes were deployed to assist rescue efforts, but were held back by the weather. No injuries were reported.
wormdunker Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 Putting the hut out on Saturday?? I'm jealous! Walleye dinner by sundown? I'll be right over!
bigugli Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 No chance of any real ice our way. 50-55F temps our way will take care of any snow and ice in Niagara. Bring on de perchies!
porkpie Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 I am hoping this warm snap that is coming blows out any ice that has formed, and gets us back to where we should be. This weather is interfering with my duck hunting, and if things keep up it will soon be interfering with my steelheading. Things are looking grim, and I may have to travel to Georgian bay or Erie to hunt soon, my local water is freezing at an alarming rate, if it's not froze out already! The ice can get lost as far as I'm concerned, and come back mid January!
4x4bassin Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 Island Lake in Orangeville is frozen with close to an inch of ice . Crazy winter so far , I mean fall !!!!
Sinker Posted November 22, 2014 Report Posted November 22, 2014 I hope you didn't jinx us with this thread title!! Don't you know you never say that?? Kinda like fishing on an really windy day and saying "hey, I think its calming down a little"......NOPE.... This time of year is a love/hate thing for me. I love to duck hunt, I love to ice fish, but I still have the hunting bug bad.....this crap came too early. Ask me mid december and I will be praying for ice LOL S.
mike rousseau Posted November 22, 2014 Report Posted November 22, 2014 Ummmm no 16 degrees Monday... And positive highs for the next 2 weeks... I'll be boating at least till mid December.... Hopefully longer Man I love living on a huge river... Lol
