NAW Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 After reading the two other rather depressing "ice fishing" reports put up by Chad and Chris, I thought I would have a go. But I didn't have any luck either!! Found "safe" ice, but could only make it to 8 fow. So I fished for an hour. Marked one school of bait fish. No big marks.. Went home cold, but anxious for later this week! 2 nights of cold coming, should put me on top of some crappies!!
Acountdeleted Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 You found safe ice?!? Now this has me excited! I'm thinking next Sunday I'm getting out..... I hope.
NAW Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Posted January 4, 2016 I should have figured you would be the first to reply to this post!!! This is the same spot we where singing frosty the snowman last year...
Acountdeleted Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Thought I recognized it. I'm chomping at the bit like crazy bud. Weather has been to cold to kayak fish and too warm to ice fish. Soon though.
AKRISONER Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 the boys will be out in PAB on saturday...not venturing far but out on the drop off infront of my place...ill let everyone know how much ice they have.
Rod Caster Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 hey jer, how many years ago was it that we were fishing around Dec 1st for splake?? What a different year!
Acountdeleted Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 I was just thinking that Chad. Was it really December 1st? We need another winter like that. The missus keeps asking me when I'm going to bring her some fresh fish home.
EC1 Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 :Gonefishing: Can't wait!! Have fun this weekend!
Joeytier Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 Oof, that looks dicey. Going out tomorrow with a little more confidence this time.
chris.brock Posted January 4, 2016 Report Posted January 4, 2016 That's gotta feel good, getting out on the ice, bright sunshine, Nick. We might be fishing Sunday in Haliburton Jeremy, I'll let you know.
NAW Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Posted January 4, 2016 It was dicey for sure!! I only made it about 70' from shore... 1" black 1" foggy junk.. It's looking like Friday morning is the day to head back up based on my work schedule. Should be another inch of good black ice if not more. I may be acting a little over optimistically! 2 years ago I was on this lake the last weekend of November. The year before it was the first week of December.
NAW Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Posted January 4, 2016 That's gotta feel good, getting out on the ice, bright sunshine, Nick. Oh Ya!! I was laying on the ice, soaking up the sun! In a -25 windchill...
