Ice Reports!

[rap]

well the forecast for minot for the next 7 days calls for no tempatures above 30 degrees at all. small sloughs are frozen in the northern part of the state with the larger ones freezing up also.

how long before lake X in a city west of Minot is frozen?

[Jeff Dosch]

Some of the smaller lakes that are connected to Devils Lake have frozen over. Some of the smaller bays on Devils Lake have a thin layer of ice out about 20 or 30 yards. Low temps are expected to be in the low 10's and highs are only expected to be in the upper 20's. If we can get some calm winds the next couple of days we should be able to get a sheet on some of the smaller bays then it wont be long until we are back on the ice.

Have a happy Thanksgiving!

Any new info on ice? Sounds like it's not very good around the area.

FINALLY made it out. fished olson wpa west of valley city for the first time ever this morning from 8:30-12:00. i found ice from 3-4 inches where i was.. tried a bunch of lures and punched alot of holes for using a spud, fished throughout 4-12 ft. of water but never had a bite. did mark a few fish though...

Corey, glad you could make it on FM. Are we heading up to LOW this winter sometime?

[Corey Heiser]

Todd,

How's it going? Sounds like I'm heading up Jan 14-17. Myself and 3 guys have a sleeper with Gibbons. Are you going to come out and have a cold one?

[Lip RIPPER!]

You can stay at my place anytime. Let make some arrangements with Kurt. The 14-17th I have two b-ball games so I won't make it.
