Sunny warming to 55 today and warmer into weekend, no snow for couple days. Only snow left is banks from winter plowing. Looking at Little Turtle out my window all white ice. Don't know about the beer!

Nice to see the lakes start going toward soft water again today. Still probably normal but after the real warm weather a month ago makes a person think we should be out in the boats by now. But that's what keeps our population down up here. If it was easy everyone would be here.

[smurfy]

thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!! hoping to see waves in a couple weeks!!!!!!!

[merc]

Did Merc have any beer? I think you know the answer to that. Heading up in ten days to clean out my shed and maybe just maybe   have a few beers during the job. It's not a union job so I should be OK.

A little ice in our bay but looks like it could go any day now

[gunner55]

Our bay is clear today, just seen a boat out. A lot of the lake appeared to open up overnight.

Was up to our cabin/hunting property the last 3 days. In the woods on trails 4 wheeling didn't see or pick off any crawlers, didn't seem to be any.

[smurfy]

thanks snowfighter. thinking I may but the frontline on anyway just to be safe!

[smurfy]

So how was winter fishing today???

[gunner55]

Finally starting to get some fish,when the weather straightens out for a day or 2. Didn't get in the boat for 3 days because of the wind. Some eyes & a few crappies, everything I've put the knife to looks like it's been feasting on bugs.

[smurfy]

These forums sure are desserted. Thanks for the update gunner! Sounds like it's been windy and wet up there 

[gunner55]

It appears the mayfly hatch that's been going on for the last week & a 1/2 is finally over. Started picking up some eyes along with a few pannies in the last couple days

[smurfy]

WOWZER............its sure quiet up there????????????

[gunner55]

That's because your not around .............. much anymore. Been a few orange hats over here but I don't think they're having it as easy as in the past. The high water & wind are playing a roll IMO. Still a few over at the north PA's of Bowstring when it's nice. Same for Mosomo Pt. Headin back south tomorrow

[smurfy]

pretty tough to talk to yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!! although ive been told i do it frequently!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[smurfy]

so i reckon it was pretty craz up there with it being MEA weekend????????? headed up next weekend!

There was at least 5-6 places down the road from us that had people at them. A few showed up mid-day or so on Thursday but for most it was Friday am. With the nice weather on Saturday there was a bunch of boats out, most came out of the PA, I believe. We haven't decided when we leaving yet, so we should be here if you get bored. Boat, dock, lift are all in the lake yet so we'll be around for a while. Nothing really going on at home until turkey day anyway.

[smurfy]

thats the thing, never seem to not being able to find something to do. then the next thing is your into refreshments and dont wanna drive.

[gunner55]

Someone who lives on the lake said they had 14" of snow by 1:30 yesterday afternoon & it was still coming down. Visibility was < 1/5 of a mile

[smurfy]

anyone from this area willing to keep us less fortunate folks that dont get to live up there posted on ice progression on the area lakes?
