Ice Fishing Get Together

Probably late January or early February Eric, gotta see when the river and lake freezes up. Hasn't even got a skim on it yet because of the wind we've been getting. Temps have also been too warm. That'd be quite the trip for you, last time I went to Akron it was around a 9-10 hour drive. You're more than welcome to come up though!

Our mud puddles are barely frozen over!

Gonna be a late season getting onto any good ice.

Any idea how much a non-resident fishing license costs up there? We do fish Lake of the Isles near the border. Might invest in a license just so we can move about a little more.

I'd really like to come up but it depends on work load and schedule. I'll talk this over with Marc also. Marc works for me and unless we have a pretty open schedule it is hard for both of us to leave at the same time.

I was thinking maybe Feb 11th or 18th? Trying to plan it a bit later because the river hasn't even started to freeze yet with the seasonably warm temperatures here. Looks like it's going to get colder soon though, so lets try for one of those two dates for now. We can adjust around anyones schedules if need be when it comes closer to the date. There's a hotel like 200 yards up the street from me if anyone wants to stay overnight and fish the next morning or whatever.

Talked to Swampy on the phone this morning, him an Blade are coming up on Friday. I'm gonna take off work around 4 and we'll head out on the Ottawa River. Hope you can make it Joe!

Man... just checked the forecast and they're talking about 25-35mm of rain on Friday, hopefully they're wrong! Supposed to be mild this week too. Oh well, I imagine there's at least 2 feet of ice, I'll report back with an official measurement later.
