I have heard of ice on the ponds on top of farmington caynyon. Has anyone seen it forming any were else? Edge ice?

I was wondering the same thing. Usually by thanksgiving somewhere has some safe ice. I am thinking we may be SOL this year at thanksgiving because the lakes have more water which take longer to cool down and the weather has been fairly mild.

Has anyone been by Scofield or Huntington lately to check water temps and conditions???

We need some subzero temps in the mountains real quick!

only in my dreams. I know the mild weather has everyone disappointed, but we'll get a cold snap soon enough and the high lakes will go fast.

The only ice I've seen in the high country(10000ft) but those lakes are not open. I don't expect to do any ice fishing before T-day but things can change quickly with some very cold weather.

[cool]I'm trying to be an optimist here, and so I think Hunington will have ice about a week or two later than normal, which should be by Thanksgiving THIS YEAR, but I think it normally has it about now. I'm thinking of calling Big Pine Sports in Fairview at lunch today.

O4T - Were you able to make that call?
I'm afraid we're going to be behind as well. It's just not been cold.

[cool]Good news fellas...We're finally going to start getting down into the 30's at night in the valley this coming week, which should put the lows at our favorite mountainous ice fishing locations about 20 degrees below that. Have faith guys!

See my Strawberry 11-11 report for the bad news.

Yes I have found ice in my freezer but I cann't get my ice auger to stay on the ice it just slides of.
[signature]

I think with the warmer than normal temps, it will still be a few weeks away. Unless we get a real freezer comin' through, I think safe ice won't be had until after Thanksgiving!

don't worry buddy I have my own filet knife now a 12 volt one I love it I can use it anywhere and not all stations have ac power. But i do need to stop by your house I have some minnows from yuba for you if you would like some.
[signature]

[cool][#0000ff]Yeah, I got one of those 12 volt portable knives too. Works great but I don't like that you have to push two buttons simultaneously with the operating hand to keep it working.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I would love some of those minnows. Hope they are still alive so we can liven up the board again.[/#0000ff]
[signature]

The 12 volt one i have only has on button to press> I will talk to the boss and see when i can drop those minnows off
[signature]

oh Yeah forgot to say that all 2000 minnows are still alive a kicking. I am also feeding the fish food every day trying to faten them up. I plan on takeing them and useing them alive also at strawbeery too.Oh as carp punisher said out at yuba all perch in yuba must be safely released into strawberry.[laugh] I wonder if I am going to get a ear full for this one lol
[signature]

Here is my ear full haven't we had enough of this -- I know you are just kidding, but can't we stop for awhile? Timing is everything and your timing is way off.
