    Gonna be a long 2 months

    Here is a webcam link on one of the lakes i spend alot of time on.
    with the winter being mild up until now it wasnt so bad, lake still looked inviting.
    Now the webcam shows a little different story.

    Skipping a jig under docks should be pretty easy now.

    I can't believe how fast time is rolling on to me. It seems just yesterday the Norfers were showing pics of big ole fish and perfect weather.

    It pretty to look at but I just couldn't live up above the Mason-Dixon line !

    I dont think I have ever seen a frozen over lake be kind of cool (or fing freeziing to go walk around on it just to do it

    can you just throw on a pair of ice skates and go nuts or does the standing snow keep that from happening?

    Re: Gonna be a long 2 months (mikepags)

    I probably wouldnt get out the ise skates yet, ice isnt very thick yet.
    in past winter the ice would get very thick, thick enough to run snow mobiles on.
    One of the lakes a little farther north of me, they have snow mobile races on.

    not me, i wont venture out on it.

    Generally 4 inches of ice considered safe ice, alot of guys will go out on 2-3 inches though, and i believe 12 inches is where guys start driving there vehicles on the ice.
