ice

Oh yeah! I had ice on the windshield this morning. These cold mornings are getting me all giggidy! :smiley_clap:

If ya gotta go and can't wait until next year, then there's some good ice fishing to be had in Cadillac, Michigan. Depending on how far you wanna drive, etc., but it's about 5 hrs. from Lima, to give you an idea of the travel time. There are a bunch of guys going from Ohio Game Fishing...

not a bad way to start off the 2012 pay lake year , a 15 pound blue cat , this is byfar the latest into winter i have seen no ice on a pond or reservior

Last week, I took my grand-children to a restaurant. My six-year-old grand-son asked if he could say grace. As we bowed our heads he said, "God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if Nana gets us ice cream for dessert. And liberty and justice for...

Vodka and ice will ruin your kidneys. Rum and ice will ruin your liver. Whiskey and ice will ruin your heart. Gin and ice will ruin your brain. Coke and ice will ruin your teeth. Apparently, ice can be lethal. :smiley_baby: Warn all your friends to lay off the ice!! It could save a...

Pulled in and noticed I had a good ice dam going behind the house. I am sure you guys up by the Lake see some great ones... Beentown

It's melting! It's melting! :smiley_crazy: Since this is my first year of ice fishing, I've not paid much attention to how long it takes for the ice to melt off and not be "safe" to fish. However, the ice will surely melt quicker than it froze. One thing's for sure and for certain...it won't...

I've been considering doing some night fishing. Nothing too late into the night, but by the time I get off work and get out on the lake, I've got about an hour to an hour and a half to fish. :smiley_depressive: It seems like after sunset the fish shut down. However, I've been reading about...

I've been watching too many videos on ice fishing Lake Michigan and most of them on the Wisconsin side of the lake. Here's one that has got my attention: www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4_E7BRzc68 Is this video NOT representative of Lake Michigan? Is the steelhead and brown trout fishing as good...

Yesterday morning I got up at 3 a.m. and made the 75 mile trip up to a lake erie marina. My dad and brother did some scouting throughout the week so I knew it was going to be worth it. We were set up and fishing by 5:30... my brother and I in my shanty, and my dad was across the dock in his...

I've been on some questionable ice...for both thickness and quality. My first ice was 2" of clear ice with 2" of white ice. I fished it for several days, before warmer weather melted the top layers and it became 4" of all clear ice. My most recent venture was a pond that...still, hasn't...

Ofcourse, NO BODY wants to fall through the ice, but it's a possability that goes with ice fishing. I recently purchased 2 sets of Polar Ice Picks, from Sportsman's Guide for $5.97 each and consider them "cheap insurance", should I fall through the ice. I hope I never have to use them, but it's...

I was ice fishing on a small farm pond on Saturday the 8th, we recieved 3" of snow on Tuesday the 11th. It has been below freezing for 2 weeks (day & night) and is supposed to stay below freezing for another 2 weeks. I went out on this pond, today and under the snow was 2" of slush...

I've noticed 4" to 5" of clear ice on most of the ponds that I've been ice fishing. Usual ice growth is 1/4" to 1/2" per 24 hours of below freezing temperatures. This only applies to a static body of water...with no flows under the ice. Otherwise, ice thicknesses could vary. It's been below...

After this past Saturday, I decided to break down and purchase a "real" ice shelter and stop getting by with my groundblind. My brother and I were on a local lake and nearly froze our keesters off (with the heater running), trying to get in some ice fishing. He did catch a nice 14" rainbow...

I see where guys are using threaded ice spikes to anchor down their ice shelters. Rather than purchase some threaded ice spikes, wouldn't a screw-in tree step work? How about a 4" to 6" large self-tapping screw or bolt? Thank you, Bowhunter57
