Can ice up be far away?

[Roberta]

We've had lows at or below freezing for several days and a predicted low of 20 for this Saturday. Won't be long, now (well, realistically, January for us).
Personally, I'd rather ice fish than sit in a boat when it's 40 degrees since I stay drier. Anybody else looking forward to hard water? - Roberta

I know I'm looking forward to it, can't come soon enough. Our lows are below freezing too, will be for the next week or so. Bring it on!

I have broke ice to get out to the main river but it is very seldom. I knew there was a reason I didn't go back to Ohio when I retired from the Navy.

I never have really ice fished as the lakes don't freeze that thick down here or if they do it does not last very long. It's been years since I was out on a lake when it was frozen enough to get out on it. But back when that happened I was too busy ice skating and playing ice hockey to think about fishing much. One needs special equipment to ice fish and it's not worth the effort to buy all the stuff needed for only one or two days ever 10 years.

Now if I lived up North like some of you guys then I would get into ice fishing more. But right now the lakes are still only down to 60 deg F at the Surface and it's really going to have to get cold to make that water cold enough to freeze. By that time I may be back into Duck hunting.

I HATE frozen lakes!!!!!
