I went out to check on the ice Sunday at 11:30. I checked right off the boat landing and it was about 5 inches. Probably more by now.

Shoot, I wish I would have seen your post sooner.

I had planned to be off work all week due to gallbladder surgery last week and I was feeling better, and was getting a little stir crazy sitting around the house, so I decided to go back to work today.

The idea to go ice fishing had crossed my mind but since it was going to be so cold I figured might as well go to work. Let us know how it goes, I’d be interested in making a trip out there in the near future.

Threw all the stuff in the truck after work. I was thinking about hitting a small lake near my house but I could easily change my plans and be at Sarah around noon tomorrow. Have you been on the ice yet?

No problem. I just went over to a little puddle near my house for a few hours. Man was it cold. Not too much happening. A few small sunfish and perch. I never did find them crappies. It was good to dust the cob webs off the auger and wet a line. Thinking about making a trip out to Sarah on Sunday.

Hope you got the car fixed.

By the way there was about 8 or 9 inches of ice.

      Just gotta use some common sense and have some ice safety gear.  If I hadn’t duffed the shot on the buck on the last day of rifle season, I’d probably be on the ice this weekend also.  Instead, I’ll still be chasing some vennie.

      Looks like Vermilion froze overnight on Monday, which would make it officially frozen Tuesday, December 3.  I am going out to McKinley Park Friday morning to check out the ice conditions and possibly fish.

      Looking at the webcams, I don't see any open water. Is Big Bay completely frozen over yet?   The forecast looks like a few inches of snow Sunday/Monday followed by temps below zero.

      I'd say lakes under 500 acers less than 40 ft deep. They're targeting panfish. We're making ice everyday. Windy today, terrible roads, lots of people decided that they needed to drive fast and that unfortunately led to some vehicles doing some incidental off roading

      Fall was like a month long.  Maybe even less.  I'm quite a bit south of you but I can recall fishing in short sleeves in late October.  Less than a month later, prior to Thanksgiving, winter arrived.   September and most of October were way more like summer than fall.  Kind of too bad, I like fall.

      It's definitely winter, we have about 4-6 inches of fluffy snow on the ground which has predominantly blown off the ice. I have several friends out on the ice as of late 5-6 inches of ice. I work the next two days, will get the gear together Saturday and go Sunday. I'd be completely fine if we have an early spring like earlier this year.
