CNY Tim Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 4 more inches of the white stuff in Rome last night And it's starting to snow again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insurance guy Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Cars covered in ice again this morning and rain on the way The rain will help beat the snow down a bit but none of the good fishing lakes are that close to being safe yet here!

Thunderman Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 Merry Christmas everyone 35* this morning and very BIG WIND. I hope this wind and warm weather don't destroy the ice we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Tim Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I like it knocked my snow banks down a couple of feet so i have even more room to stack more white stuff. This could be a blessing in disguise boys, at least I hope it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augustwest Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 It rained pretty hard and was windy for several hours last night here in Madison County.The snow got knocked down a lot and I am sure it was a tremendous help for our ponds here. We only got a dusting here and the wind blew all of it into Massachusettes. We are good to go for tomorrow boys. I will take a drive today and spud/drill some waters!Will post R$C later!!

CNY Tim Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Lee's out there fishing today, he'll need about 3 coats of camp dry on his scout. Raining here as well. Off to the dealer shortly cleaned up the inside of my Venture as much as one can in the rain. Were trying to buy in Rome, will see what Gabe can do on the 08 T&C as we have a couple Uplander options and hour away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Cloud Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 We got heavy rain and a thunderstorm last night into early morning. Now it looks like the rain is staying north of us and soaking you guys. Were gonna head south for the afternoon to "the" crappie "pond" 34 degrees now and they are caling for 50 tomorrow. THunderTodd, our ice will survive these two days then temps look good all week... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USMC130FE Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 This is just BULL-@#$T. I FINALLY got on the ice and now it will be gone! Oh well it was a little thin anyways as it was cracking and making other noises when walking on it. I'm calling it 2.5" Did however ice some nice perch though. Now I'll have to get the boat back out!

Fishingking Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Probably 6" of lite and fluffy snow has fallen on a very thin new sheet of ice on the perch pond hopefully the wind blows the snow off and the ice remains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insurance guy Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 More snow here also and winter is settling in for good it seems. I'm finally giving up hope on any more walleye trolling now as there's too much ice and it's time to get the motor winterized and take the Lowrances off the Lund til next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper07 Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Just got done shoveling 6" out of my drive not to mention all the stuff the snowplow deposited at the end of my drive and in front of the mailbox. Thank god for pain meds. Yepper I think winter is here to keep us company for a while. Now we just need the wind to clean off the ice for us.
