Guess the first day of safe ice and win a Gruv jig box!
Must be on 3” of ice minimum. Prize will not be awarded for unsafe actions.
Give it your best guess and see what happens!!

January 11

Who determines when it is? What if I submit a pic of a tape measure in the ice? 3 Jan.
-
That’s what we need. :)
-

-
Jan. 19 but hope it's sooner!!
-
3" on what lake? I will guess January 14. I am just hoping for some safe ice in Ohio in 2021.
-
Lake Erie December 26th!! Ok i might not win but I'm a lock for honorable mention, plus it just sounds good.

-

-
29 Dec we had almost 4 inches of ice on Mogadore. If you look you can see the water line on the tape.
-
Awesomeness!! I’ll see if anyone had 12/29. I got Jon’s pic in my email too. 👍🏻
-
AccWeather data of past temps. for Mogadore Res. area.
Dec. 6-12 - Avg. High - 46.0 deg. Avg. Low - 35.1 deg.
Dec. 13 - 19 - Avg. High - 36.9 deg. Avg. Low - 29.9 deg.
Dec 20 - 28 - Avg. High - 41.2 deg. Avg. Low - 26.4 deg.
Can someone tell me how almost 4 in. of ice were formed by Dec. 29 ???
-
Had to be pure magic that made it. But in reality it was a bunch of pack ice that ended up pushed in the bay must have thawed some and with those 16 degree nights tightened up and got nearly 4” thick and sold as a rock except the edges were awful. I fished it Monday and Tuesday it actually made a half inch of ice from Monday to Tuesday.
There are other lakes in neo with ice in very limited areas that is going to be fished today. I know I’ll be out somewhere.
-
Actually I was just told by someone who’s on the ice right now where E58 took that picture. It gained 3/4 last night which is kinda interesting.
-
sooooo do we have a winner ? winner winner chicken dinner hahahhaha
-
That is interesting, but it did drop to 22 there last night. Tonight is going to be the killer I’m afraid. I’m so sick of these warm fronts. On Tuesday the 5th I should be released to do whatever I want, so it’ll be all open water everywhere by then.
-
30 was closest with 12/30. I’ll send his Gruv box out on Monday!
-
Congratulations,30! Good contest, Slab. Best part was as far as we know everyone stayed safe and dry !
-
January 19
-
We did have one guy get a wet foot getting off the ice. You know how shallow weedy areas are, that and the fact he weighs in at 270. ;D ;D ;D
-
I guess January 13th
-
Hey! I won... I was really just being a smartass, but I guess it counts. Lol. If you need my address Joel, just look on the other package you haven't sent me yet... ;)
-
Haha! It’s actually going in the mail this morning. ;D
They both will be. You guys were on 4” so it counts, as does the online tournament post! Glad you got on, looks like by next week it’ll be improving all over.
-
nice ;D
-
You know me I am usually on ice first. Of course I do live a bit farther north than some and am retired so if there is a chance of getting on I am usually available to.
-
Same here. Not working winters I’m right with you 58. I’d have been on Moggy last week if not for the ankle. Hoping for next week somewhere!!
