How the heck do you guys have open water?!

There's still a few inches of ice on our pond, although I haven't checked our local reservoir...

Sucks I gotta work this week or I'd go out to see how our reservoirs are doing.

Don't know... there was quite a bit of ice Friday evening, and this morning everything was gone.... trust me, I ain't complaining! I will get my first bass very early this year!

The ice is slowly going away. Although today we have 3 inchs of new snow. Looking forward to some steady warm weather, maybe in a few weeks.

I figure another week before we have open water here. It's just starting to open around the edges. But dropping into the teens at night is slowing it down.

That sucks!! Their was Friggin TRUCKS out on the ice today!

Only soft places here are the ones with a good bit of current, I wanna try to fish the dam where it's open next weekend, but I gotta a fishin license too before that. What's the weather (highs and lows) like up there Ryan?

Cavs1123 · 03-06-11, 07:16 PM

Um...Boss its still pretty cold here. Depends on the day. 29 today and some 50-60 days later this week so it varys

Weather is pretty normal for this time of year... but we have had like 4-5 inches of rain in the last week, with some decent weather in the 40's for highs, and lows have been between 20-30 degrees...

The 15 day forecast for us is saying highs between 55 and 60 from March 16-20th... I hope they are right, but you know how that goes...

glad to hear it for you rryan. hope oyu go out there and rack up like last year buddy.

We're completely open now as well. Water temps at the reservoir are 38.

But, we are scheduled to get 12" of snow with 30 mph winds starting tomorrow. I am not at all happy! We start tournaments soon...well, maybe soon. The first one may get moved if this is going to be the case.
