Icefool,
It's not too cold to camp. It's been pushing 80 in the Basin. I think a cold snap is coming though. The gills have been slow, and if the cold hits they'll shut down completely. Bass fishing has been better, but it's slowing down too. The water level is very low. You can't launch anything at the ramp but very small boats, and they must be pushed over the mud flat (perfect for kayaks hehehe). I'm done at Pelican till the ice sets up. The ice comes on early at Pelican and the first few weeks is the best ice fishing of the season. If you havn't ice fished it, you should plan on it. Some of the best fishing is through the ice. I often catch my biggest largemouth of the year through the ice there, and I bass fish it a lot. Good luck to you.
Good Fishing, Kayote
