    Haywood, normally, it gets to where you think about an extension for your auger, if your drilling new holes. My guess, April 4.

    I’m not going to make a prediction till we see what kind of weather we have this month, but I hope we have solid ice on the pond till the day before opener just to keep the gill nets out of it.

    I have heard alot of people saying just that!! If we do have an early ice out….all it does, is let our natives have the run of the lake.

    Check out this pic, of an “overloaded” boat load of natives and walleye’s
