So here are the rules;
-pick one date for ice out(if someone already picked that date your cannot pick that date)
-post your real name and the date only so as not to be confusing
-Ice out will officially be when I can see from Siskos Resort all the way to Eagle Island and beyond
-Winner gets a custom topwater from myself and maybe some other goodies.
Here is a sample of how to post and remember if you use a name like "musky man" or "topwater killer" I can't really tell who you are:

Don't know if I'll make it early as we are thinking of going to Alaska but with this year we'll probably have snow in July the way it's going. The corner is getting smaller every year; I think they call that dying. But am looking forward to being the smartest corner in the bar ( I know that doesn't take much as long as Ty isn't there), the of us can bluff are way through!
Ty -I'll see you whenever I decide to come, thanks and have a great season; just make a list of where the big ones are and give it to me.

Just for your ice update,there's a lot of it. I'm guessing there is about twenty five inches of ice give or take depending on the area you drill. We had below zero temps again last night. That's twice this week. It was -14 on Sunday. Lucky for us March Madness has started so there's plenty of basketball to watch whole sitting by the warm fireplace.

I don't remember ever missing a walleye opener due to ice. I'm sure it has happened but I don't recall it. I remember the ice going out two days before opener and doing really well that year.

I recall the the lake going a day two before the opener once in the 70's I think it was 1976???-- fishing was fantastic i went up the eastfork and you could catch all the walleyes you wanted and some nice ones too. There was enough current so you just achored in the rapids by the resort and the fish were constant. I know I'll regret this but I had a wittness; I caught 3 walleyes on the same repalla 1 1/2, 2 and 3 pounds. Of course no one believed it. Limit was 5 then and you only had to go out an hour to catch them, there are pictures of big stringers at the trail. Buck- I'm sure you will say I'm spreading manure, but in reality you know I speak the truth!!!

There is still a lot of still here. It's not going out along shore much yet which is a good start.

More cold weather and snow coming the next couple days. Can I change my ice out guess to July 4th?
Ty Sennett
04-10-2013, 08:32 AM
We lost a little ice in that wind yesterday but your right, cold weather coming in today. The one thing that might help melt lake ice will be the extra runoff when today's snow melts. I'd rather see rain though.

You have slipped more than I thought...next thing we will hear about you hiding your own easter egss....However, because of my Christian upbringing, I am going to believe this story...Last year I shot 4 deer with one shot with my bow...ran that Rage right through em all...damnest thing I have ever seen...Warden didn't seem to believe me...should be out on Huber by the opener.... BUCK NASTY.

At first I didn't like my May 6th pick, but I am starting to get a little bit smug about it!!! But I would still rather be in a boat for the opener than back on ice...
