Is there a safe way to cross that street and get access to the pond on that side with the fast moving water and thin ice?

Yeah, we should be fine by the time the tourney hits.

Stick to the shoreline on the western side and then move towards the middle as the lake opens up more.

Just looked at accuweather. Looks like we're going to have non-stop freezing temps from next Wednesday on.

We should have more than plenty safe ice.

Rick Me and my buddy parked at the ramp on the north side of 20 and fished it today solid 6 inches of ice every where we went. Epic day of fishing too

Fish tend to bite better right before and after a storm. It should be good.

One more week to go!!! I'm trying to figure out how much sausage to buy.

Don't forget that your $20 entry fee (or plug) also gets you food by where we are set up (and beach plum vodka).

Can't wait!

Just finished the last of the packing, checking the grill, etc.

I have to say that for a portable grill, that Weber has been through about 50 rounds of ice fishing, 10 years driving on the beach, a million Pats games, etc. I think I lent it to Casey and Kacie for a while, too. It's a quality product that fires right up every time!

Yeah,
I see that Bill. Luckily it's only a two mile drive from the motel to the lake. It should be easy pulling the sleds through that kind of snow, though.

Not enough wind to be a Blizzard. Plus the big snow will be over by the time we are starting.

Weather Underground is saying now snow past today. I have now given up on the weather channel, its good back ground noise on the TV but cant stand the website.

WU says very cold and windy the next three days. Should really capitalize on the ice making potential.

Just a reminder to pack in your own shiners. I'm picking up 6 dozen for my crew on Friday AM.

The liquor store in town is selling shiners but its one size only and he isnt opening early to sell them. Says he will open at 6 but it hasnt been happening so like the man say bring your own shiners.
