Hi All,
Do you think we'll get any decent ice build this week? Forecasts show a slight warm-up compared to last week with highs in the mid 30's and lows in the mid 20's. They are forecasting highs in the 40's next weekend.
This weekend was a let down for me as I didn't get out (Truck is in the repair shop). I'm hoping to get out this week or next weekend....

I plan on fishing Indian this coming weekend. Wish I had more help at work I would be there this week.
-
Should have ice building this week. Hopefully the shoreline ice locks up good with yesterdays and todays temps.
-
Kiser is 5" and getting better , we didn't lose any.
-
Same at Nimi. Was out for a bit this morning on C-5 and had s good 3-3.5" inches. You could hear it making ice like crazy. Shoreline was locked up tight. This week nothing is going anywhere.

Well guys, just watched the weather and I hope they are wrong calling for a few days in the high 40s with rain toward the weekend and 60s and rain beginning of next week! We just can't catch a break, better drill some holes soon or we might be waiting for 2nd ice to arrive
-
I hope we catch a break!
-
Doesn't look too bad for what I'm seeing. Quit worrying nate. Your plans always work out ;)
-
Because our baby will come any day and I'll be off the ice for at least a couple weeks per my promise, that means a huge arctic blast. I'll be seeing reports and photos of giant fish pulled thru ice holes while I'm changing diapers. Jealous already!
-
I saw the 10 day,looks dismal ................... :-[
-
Yep, after Christmas weekend, forecast doesn't look good. Hopefully we'll get another cold front to refreeze things. Most ice on the lakes are more sketchy than safe.
-
gosh slab, if it would make you feel better I can bring over some fish.
-
Thanks, but I'm the only one who likes fish! But I think I'll be out sooner than thought. After this weekend looks like we'll have a little lull in safe ice and by round 2 I'll be ready!!!
-
report is east harbor good Sandusky bay hot
-
Will probably take a drive around PLX Monday to check ice conditions.
-
Well guys looks like mother nature strikes again. The aftermath in my neighborhood ponds doesn't look promising. Bring on the cold temps.
-
:'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
-
Do you think lakes will recover this week? I'm seeing temps above freezing for 5-6 hours each day....
-
from what I see of the ice its evaporating but still holding a base, and the temps for the week it looks like I'm not getting on any ice for a bit. :P :P :P kinda like last year freeze then thaw then freeze. but I'm ready ....I have some new stuff and I need to try it out damit.

RE-FREEZE
-
I feel for you guys ;D... Went out and checked my pond 1/2 hour ago: It's Still ON in NW OHIO!!!!
After close to an 1" of rain, wind and +50 degree temps all day yesterday, I spudded 8 holes and found 5 to 7" of ice. Had to step over the edge where it had pulled back a little. Temps this week are not to get above low 40's during day and down into the 20's at night. I will be back on the ice THIS WEEKEND. Just be careful: spud your way out, go with a buddy, have a throw rope, ice picks and ice cleats( no snow left on ice and is smooth and slick).
No Ice is Safe Ice and ice that has re-froze is not as strong as new ice...
Tight Lines....

Extended 15 day forecast shows only one day in the next 10 days with a high below freezing, with two days this weekend near 50. Not good news. There might be a glimmer of hope for a refreeze starting on 1/5/17.
My wife already questions why I spend thousands on ice fishing gear that tends to just take up space in the garage... I'll let everyone know when she makes me have the garage sale. ;)
-
bp I will give $50 for all of it.
-
yeah right ? all this gear for a really SHORT season, dang got rid of the bike for a boat, short season ...help I'm a prisoner of the weather.. :P
-
Hopefully she doesn't find out about your generous offer...
