Hi,
Just want to hear from others what todays warmer temps did in your area ?
It got up to 46 F here in Winsted - And because the melt-water has no where to run off to, the lower portion of my driveway is a small lake.
Hmmmmmm?
Maybe I should have it stocked so I don't have to drive to catch a fish !

If that pic was taken around here....
Then I'd guess Squantz. Rain soaked, steep banks, but a continuous walk to find the 'eye.

No, wait...There is nothing in the sled that even resembles fishing gear. Is it covered? Is there gear in there? Or maybe he's hauling ice chunks to fortify his spot?
Regardless, this snow will not turn to 4 inches of water, and if it does, it's in SCT, which had minimal ice to begin with, and no one would be standing on it. I dunno, I have a pretty easy sch. at work the rest o' the week in Litchfield, I'm packing my stuff and looking for freezer fodder after work (perch, trout, maybe 'gills), let ya'll know what I find.

Hi,
After seeing how quickly the snow melted today and made my lower driveway into a small lake + the next 4-5 days, and longer hours, of warm daytime temps and short hours of cold night time temps ....I seriously belive we are .......
.
2nd year in a row that Mother Nature has not been kind to us ice fishermen ! 
If you go -> CHECK THAT ICE EVERY FEW FEET NOT YARDS
No fish is worth your life !
Be Careful and Stay Safe !

3 month outlook and Phil both agree with each other. Early start to spring with a quick warm up. |
