any of the lakes getting skim ice or any kind of ice at all

[Ausable Junkie]

Yes, a few smaller lakes (20-30 acres) went from open to iced-over last
night. Some ice on the bays of the bigger ones. Won't be long now....

[da fish hunter]

how about cedar and van eatton. and reports out of their hopeing that the 27/28 will have good ice out in cedar and any other lakes you can think of that would produce some nice fish would be great

[Ausable Junkie]

Not sure about cedar and vanettan, but it got down to 15 last night (again)
so i'm thinking the've gotta at least have a skim on them.

I live on the western side of iosco county and don't get over to Oscoda to ice
fish much. I spend most of my time on the backwaters of the ausable.
Cooke, alcona, and five channels are my favorites.

As far as lakes, Long Lake and Loon are good inland lakes to fish.
The DNR regularly stocks these with walleye.

Dale is that you? If it is be carefull with the quad on the ice remember they dont float:lol: Hope u figure out who this is, and if you do have a great day and good luck fishing:fish2:

[OscodaAsh]

van etten= no ice. Cedar had a skim. Backwaters of foote pond need a couple more nights. some small lakes in alcona county may be ready to fish tomorrow...i hope.

[Ausable Junkie]

Actually they do nutty, i got the pics to prove it.;)

I quit the old job and i'm taking the winter off to spend it in the shanty.
Gimme a jingle if u wanna catch sum eyes.

P.S., How'd the mount turn out on that 300lb+ bruin u shot at in da upper?:lol:

[da fish hunter]

[OscodaAsh]

Did I hear someone say Alcona? As in Alcona Pond maybe? Could she be ready?:yikes:

[bluekim7]

Can anyone tell me how much snow Alcona Co. got this past week?

[OscodaAsh]

Alcona Co. got about 6 inches of snow which hurt the ice making. Alcona pond may have a few of the smaller bays froze over. Foote pond's landings are but the main basin is not... sure its the same on Alcona. Derek...PM me with what species you'd like to fish and i can point you in the right direction.

[mud]

thanks OscodaAsh, I figured another week anyway.
Tight lines!

Just wondering if folks are running snowmobiles on the area trails. I want to fish but the kids want to ride. I have a little cabin on Pine Acre Rd on the N side of the AuSable, the road across from Gordons bait. Just wondering if people are fishing Loon Sh*! Bay yet. That is just walking distance for me.

I was at loon S$#% yesterday (Wednesday) It was not safe. One light whack with the spud was all it took. Soon....

i was there last night saw a couple of people fishing it, seemed to be ok to me, but there was a spot that had slush on top. maybe by saturday suposed to get down to 10 tonight and 8 again after that.

I think I will wait until next weekend to come up, I heard you have 5 inches of snow in the Hale area, any truth to that.
I need to get up there as I have a snowmobile that was not running right when I put it away, it needs to get to a shop up there. Anyone you would recommend with a phone number. it is a 96 V Max 600. Close to Glennie/Hale only.
Reguardless I want to fish, I feel like why fix it so they can tear it up again, all part of the fun, it started running bad after it hit a tree, yes the front end looks like heck. I loved that sled.
