Yeah, frustrating - especially since I know what size of fish exist in the lake. Oh well...I'm fortunate to even get out - sounds like everyone East of IA has no ice to speak of, even JKB in Michigan. I don't recall a year like that, ever...and I thought last Winter was too warm. We're lucky to have the ice.
We're getting it now! Single digit lows and wind! Not much snow accumulation, but the wind is making for poor visibilities with the really fine snow. A couple weeks of this, and we'll have some ice.
The 3/4 acre pond behind my apt. is starting to freeze after a couple days of this. Ground is still too warm, and tiled runoff is keeping it open.
February is usually our coldest and nastiest month around here. See what happens.
