We shall see folks, there is 2 hours and 6 minutes left between now and the end of April 14th and I believe a lot can change by then. Until that time, cheers everyone!

how old are you? lol

I know everyone is cranky and growing old of the cold weather but relax man let it go! Did you get a cup of coffee or orange juice this morning, not get enough sleep, a chill from the cold spring air? Take it easy!

This cranky old man is trying to roll with the punches .. ice, bugs, fire bans, arthritis, foreign forum trolls!

Yes, lets take it easy!

I think any Ice Out Prediction with the Word April in is looks like it will be wrong

Sigh. I think you’re right. I should have gone with May 14. Or maybe June.

Just back in from snowplowing my driveway.

Did I miss anything?

Has the ice gone out yet?

Yes the Ice is out of my First DRINK of the day as I'm sorting through lures and changing fishing line on reels.

That is Just in Case the Ice goes out later today

The Drink is ""Red"" but my choice of lures for Spring Lake Trout always has BLUE in it......to start with anyways.

Ran some detailed calculations on what needs to happen to hit a May 4th ice out.

Really interesting stuff. Never heard about the P.O.W. camp. Reading material while we wait for the ice to go.

So when I said ice out by May 10th ... I meant 2019 ...

I hope no one is planning a trip to Brent anytime soon
I took this photo 2 hours ago.

3+feet of snow on the road still.

Boo.

I liked the ATVenture in past years' ice-out threads much, much better.

Next week's forecast for Brent is looking promising! sunny and double digit temperatures in 7 of the next 10 days. I am still holding out a small sliver of hope for May 4th opener!

Did you do in your tailgate, or have you set it up to cant like that on purpose for unloading and loading? And thanks for the heads up on the snow conditions of Brent Rd..as depressing as it appears.
