Awesome- the thing that's fantastic about our lifestyle is- switching gears to the next activity and always having something to look forward to!

*Same here, once you start one season you have to b e busy getting your gear ready for the next one already. We have skim ice on all our ponds and with no wind today there will be ice forming on the bigger lakes. And still you are never completely ready for the next season when that starts. But it is early and probably will not be on ice until X-mas.......jk

I bet they'll be driving on most the slough lakes by this weekend, Sak and Audubon probably not so much.

Drilled 4 holes, found fish and sat over top of them. The lake we were on is pretty much a last 1/2 hour of light bite, we put 7 on the ice in about 15 minutes that one being the biggest.

You wont see me driving on the ice this coming weekend but I bet there will be 1/2 tons driving on it somewhere.....someone has to be first..lol

Oh, I'll make up for it, work is the problem right now.

March/first two weeks in April is my preference.

The lake I fished was fished by a buddy of mine last Thursday, he report between 5 and 7" of ice. I fished it on Sunday with 12+ inches of ice, couple subzero nights can put inches on in short order.

Getting that first cap on is the hard part with the wind blowing .... We still have one more week of muzzleloader season here then I will get the tip ups out and start changing leads and sharpening hooks .... Can usually ice fish well into march up here ....
