Tracks in the snow are those from my sled coming and going last night. Since then the ice has heaved from the lake rising.

Steve I thought about sitting in my sled and pushing myself over to the ice but I didn't have a launch permit for the sled. Stupid launch permits.

Did find accessible ice, though the first 5 steps made some funny cracking sounds. It was only three steps coming back....three 'GIANT' steps.

Some food for thought to those venturing out tomorrow. Shoreline ice might be passable due too sub-freezing temps tonight. But returning to shore may be different when the sun pops up and the temps approach 50.

I thought last night, the ice was making weird sounds but that noise, was nothing like this evening.😱

Tomorrow may be a good day to check out Pymie.

Ummm shhhhhh, no spot burning but yes and, not me in the hut. Was a gorgeous day on the ice, absolutely gorgeous.

Like a beagle speaks to the hunter so spoke the ice to this hard water angler. Pops, gurgles, whine and shivers made for a great morning of ice fishing. That is, until the sun rose high in the sky and warmed the surface bringing silence to the restless frozen lake surface.

Would not have been the best time to introduce a newbie to the sport unless you wanted an excuse, to leave early. But to the seasoned ice angler, twas music to the ears.

Tonight will certainly be a time to visit the frozen lakes for those who want to hear. As the night time temperatures fall below freezing and the ice once again expands, should not be difficult to hear, as the ice sings her song.

Another fun fact about ice fishing....

Sometimes You get lucky....... I catched some stupid fish!!! The hole is 8" in diameter. Imagine the look on my face when those lips poked through the ice.
