Been fishing for many years, but last year was my first year on the ice and I caught the bug, anxious to get out again. Still a newbie when it comes to a lot of things but you guys have filled this site with great information which is very helpful. When I've been watching the forecast I was getting nervous it's not getting cold enough but everyone seem to think we're off to a good start. Can I ask when the typical ice season starts and ends in NE Ohio? I know this is a bit of a loaded question, much depends on Mother Nature but if somebody were to maybe just give me a rough average it will help me understand how long the season typically is.

Thanks...
