Welp, think I'm done deer hunting for the year. Now getting excited for ice fishing :D

We had good ice forming the past couple weeks....then the warm weather the last couple of days kind of put a dent in it. But it was a cool 10 degrees this morning, so it is forming rather quickly again.

Yeah I heard ATVs were out last week on Red lake. That means we should easily have enough for pickups by our annual fishing trip between Xmas and New years. Assuming no long spell of unseasonably warm weather.

Yeah, should easily be enough ice by then to do that. Especially if we don't get a whole lot of snow in the mean time.
 
Do you hit the bow, gun and muzzleloader seasons?
Bow and shotgun normally. Quit bow hunting a few weeks ago for the year though since the property we hunt is better earlier on (not to mention warmer weather). Just got back from Texas where we were hunting with rifle.

That's what I'm thinking :cool:

Nice! Sounds like fun. I need to get in on the bow season one of these years, I've wanted to give it a shot but haven't gone yet.
 
Let it snow! The white crap has put a damper on my plans for today though. So much for watching the game with the family.
 
Had some early afternoon visitors today.

Still coming down. Just finished up shoveling the driveway and cleaning off the cars. There has to be close to a foot or more out there now.

EDIT: Here is a pic from the table on my deck... probably a little deeper as the tape measure most likely compacted snow below it, but I took it quick because I was bare foot :laugh:

It has been nice and cold the past few days. Sunday was like a high of 10 and yesterday was like 15. I kind of want to run out on our lake and see how it is doing.
