Don't panic yet guys. The weather men are wrong often enough it might be -5 next week. Lol. But just to be safe I'll be out as much as I can the next few days. Too bad I have a job...

I know.  This sucks.  Especially after last year. But if we lose our ice, we got out early and we will have second ice soon. The long term has said mid-January-February is supposed to be really really cold!!

... Took a walk out on OSP Tuesday, 12/19 at 5pm just to get my "ice legs" and check things out. Still not 100%, but itching to drill some holes and wet a line.  Alot of my gear is loaded and ready to go, just haven't pulled the trigger yet... maybe Thursday evening 12/22... OSP or Nimmy
