Title: Hope dashed again
Post by: g on January 10, 2019, 07:07:05 PM

Finally getting temps to start building ice and here comes the snow. I wonder if we will ever get fishable ice this season. Oh well, it is what it is and no use dwelling on it. If we do get ice, I am definitely taking vacation days to make the most of it.

I think we’ll definitely get on.   Long term is looking up.  Just might be a few extra days if we get snow.  

Just saw what you meant.  Weird you guys are seeing a bigger snowfall forecast than we are up here.  Just flurries for us, which wouldn’t be a big deal. But 3-6 inches would hurt!   Hope it’s wrongand stays south of us all.

Same here!  I know the Wilcraft works great in my driveway!  We can try it on Rik’s too!

5 day forecast around Dayton looks dismal. Daytime temps above freezing and rain Fri. Looks like ice fishing in central Ohio will be a bust this year. Need a couple arctic blasts to have any kind of ice season.
