Ice Out

[tcroz]

What are the latest predictions for ice out?

[Gary Crichton]

Hopefully b-4 opener. Last year it was right about opening day, with lots of ice to the south, throught the weekend. If it warms up big time, my guess is April 30-May 1st.

We will be coming up the weekend after opener. I noticed at the resort I am staying at that they had several cancellations for opening weekend. Just wondering if they are afraid the ice won't be out for opener.

It will be off before opener for sure. This coming week we should lose a lot of ice. Last year the river on the southwest side was solid in early april. This year it is open a good 400 yds beyond the mouth. I'm guessing ice will be off before the week of the 27th.

My guess would be about may 2 or 4 with it warming up

These are from about noon today from the Richards Townsite (west of Nodaks) public access on the south side of Winnie looking north and west.

I don't like seeing all that white stuff out there. I like that black ice stuff. I still praying over here!

Was up there yesterday and no sign of the shorelines breaking away yet.

is it possible we could still be out there pounding perch, it's just that every body is burnt out of ice fishing and is waiting for summer with open arms?

Who's burnt out, I would like to be up there ice fishing now, best time of the year, however work and other things come into play. Last year I believe April 10th was my last ice fishing day, and when I left I thought I would be ice fishing for opener.

Cmon Jiggle get that ice a shifting around.

Check out the Williams Narrows website. Joe has a web cam on the lake looks as though there is a couple hundred yards of open water on Cut Foot!!! Great sight to see.
