Okay, NOW it's starting to feel like hardwater season

[Geezle]

Stupid snow! :mad0100:

I know it had to come eventually, but it still feels like it's too soon! I'm guessing that we've still got at least 2-3 weeks of open water fishing before ice becomes an issue, and shortly after that some of the ponds should be okay if a person is brave enough.

Might have to dust off the ice gear from last season and start getting some stuff ready to go :o

I can't wait for the hard water, just puting a mod pipe and porting my new auger I got yesterday. Let it freeze.:sHa_shakeshout:

I cant to have a trout fry on 4 inches of ice!

We've still got weeks before there's even sketchy ice to fish on around here. Looks like we're just going to have to keep fishing the NSR til then :cool:

Don't count on it Geezle. Long range forecast next week, -16 for a low one day.
Once it starts there's no turning back till March!

It's coming, :sHa_shakeshout::sHa_shakeshout:

I will start getting the ice gear ready right after Boo! day.

By the way, I got a little sley with child size snow skeis on it. Anyone want it? Free, Free! PM me. I will try to post pics in the buy sell. N.E Edmonton

Ice fishing? No no no..... whitetails!.. Time to get ready to hunt the rut!

[Geezle]

Well, yesterday afternoon I met up with YeeHaw and we headed down to one of my favorite little spots on the river for a little fishing. It was slow going at first, but we managed a couple fish and got a nice little fire going.

AppleJax showed up a little before it got dark, and from that point on the fishing really took off. All said and done, we got a bunch of walleye, as well as a goldeye, a pike, and a slimy little burbot thrown in there for variety.

As always it was a good evening of catching fish and shooting the shyt with the guys :)

No real great pics but I was kind of shooting at everything trying to figure out the camera on my new phone! :lol:
