How about May 12th! lol It will take a while to lose 38" of ice, especially with these temps.

Posted

April 29. Wish it would be like tomorrow!

Posted

I'll guess May 4.

Posted

I will guess May 1 but I have been wrong before. C'mon spring, the cabin fever is really kicking in.

April 16th. The lack of snow cover will help the melting process.

A good heavy snowmelt does assist in the honeycombing or rotting of the ice.

I'll go with April 23rd - the wife's B-Day.

By the way, is there a prize for closest guess without going over? Perhaps a half day guided trip on old Milly since you started the thread Derek? smile.gif

Posted

I'm thinking April 28th

Posted

I'll say May 3rd, my B-Day...

Truthfully tough, I'm thinking more like April 22 or so, we get some rain and that ice will be gone in no time.

With that hot air blowing in, I cant imagine there could be much ice left, if any. I bet opener will be a good one this year.

Posted

I am hearing reports that the lake was Ice free Wednesday the 16th. Derek?

Posted

The majority of the ice went out tuesday night. The whole east and north sides are ice free. 3/4 of an inch freezing rain with 40mph winds on wednesday took out alot of trees, big ones too.

------------------
Shut up and fish!

Posted

I'm going to say May 3

      I think it all helps to create motion and confusion to keep their attention away from the blinds.  The hurricanes seemed pretty important though.  6 of them per spread and moved around dependent on wind direction.  Some tall silo socks mixed in with them too.  Kill hole in the middle with a few decoys clustered over the e call.  That was about 25 yards from the blinds.  7-8 batteries to run everything.  2000 decoys per spread.   I wasn’t the shot caller.  We were taking them at about 40 yards on average but I believe we could’ve gotten a lot of them feet down.  We all remember the single Ross’ that broke off from a group of snows hovering at 100+ yards and took the elevator all the way down to its demise.  The shot was called just before it lit but we were all sure if it was left alone, the audience above would’ve joined.  It was mesmerizing to watch to watch how much they work a spread without flapping their wings much.   These pics were waiting for them to come down closer.  They did.

      Never hunted conservation season. Actually get birds feet down or longer shots? I've been running battery operated flappers but does the rotary machine really help?
