Hey Chris What's up??

 

Speaking to a buddy today. He was in Minden on Monday and where there was ice 2 weeks ago it was all open Monday

I'm just trying to decide between work/ cottage

 

thanks Ricky, I must admit, not the answer I was hoping for

I spoke with one guy that claims 4" on small, sheltered lakes, but I can't confirm that.

I also have a buddy who found walkable ice on a small back lake yesterday. Just check carefully. This snow won't help.

 

I'm gonna wait til next week.

Hey Chris im 20 minutes north of Parry sound and we have 5 to 7 inches of ice on our lake in some of the sheltered bays and narrow channels.

I was up in Haliburton area on Saturday, very thin ice on small lakes but no ice at all on the bigger lakes

How do you think the main areas in Pointe Au Baril would be looking? hoping to get some walk out action over the christmas break. I know we are supposed to get some more cold weather once this warm spell passes, but do you think we would have 6 inches by mid next week?

It has been very mild here all week I do not think the conditions on the bay in Pointe Au Baril would be safe I am on a 5klm inland lake it always freezes up early they are calling for colder temps for the next few days.

The webcam shows the channel being frozen going into the Pointe au Baril, but I actually wonder what kinda ice it is.

They have been ice fishing in the kawarthas now for weeks !!! No snow on the few lakes around me but seems to be 4-5 inches is the norm !!!! stay away from the obvious danger spots seen a few guys on my lake this morning
