MittenMouth Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 6 hours ago, A-Jay said: As this 2nd week of March comes to a close, warmer temps, wind & rain seem to be dominating the local forecast. We've seen a significant snow loss recently with more & more bare ground appearing daily. Lakes are still iced over but I Like where this is trending . . . My projected open water date is 34 days away. A-Jay There was a lot of ice still left when I was there last week- good luck! We are clear finally down here but still holding off a week or so before I get my boat out...mostly because my buddy has his ready to go already 1 Quote

A-Jay Word on the street is in order to prevent the spread to the brown bass, they will not school this year. Good luck pal. ? 1 4 Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted March 14, 2020 Global Moderator Posted March 14, 2020 I drove by my local smallie lake and as I had suspected it still has ice on it. I’d say it’s about 40% open, and of course the ice is in front of the launch so even if I wanted to go out there I couldn’t. The bright side the ice appears to be on its last leg and I’d guess gone in a few days. Quote
Super User slonezp Posted March 14, 2020 Super User Posted March 14, 2020 Ice is gone here but it's snowing today Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted March 15, 2020 Author Super User Posted March 15, 2020 Seems this area is in a sort of suspended animation. Not getting worse but not really getting any better either. Better being- overtly obvious conditions that promote open water. A-Jay 1 Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted March 15, 2020 Global Moderator Posted March 15, 2020 We woke up this morning to a dusting on the ground and skim ice on the lake, it’ll be gone by the end of the day but still a reminder that this is still Michigan and Mother Nature is still in control. 2 Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted March 20, 2020 Author Super User Posted March 20, 2020 Tonight is the vernal (spring) equinox. Perhaps more importantly and in tune with the title of this thread, it's 40 degrees and RAINING at 9 PM. A-Jay 2 Quote

Have to see what it did to the ice on the lake the next day or so. 1 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted March 22, 2020 Super User Posted March 22, 2020 Last Thursday it was almost 70 here. Now it's snowing out side. This is nuts. Quote
Way north bass guy Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 Took a drive down to the town docks yesterday ( Georgian Bay in Parry Sound). There’s still a bit of ice out there, but it’s open at the river and I can see a fair bit of open water a couple miles out in the bay, which means it’ll likely be all open in about two weeks. I’m bringing the boat down from my shop/winter storage next weekend and into my heated garage so I can start loading up and sitting in it at night, dreaming of a spring trout fish! 2 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted March 23, 2020 Author Super User Posted March 23, 2020 It was cold (below freezing ) most of this past weekend but the next few days seem to be trending in the right direction ~ A-Jay Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted March 23, 2020 Global Moderator Posted March 23, 2020 Another blessing and a curse. I’m a utility locator so we will continue to work which is good. The downside is I’m working, so I can’t fish on our open lake. Trust me I’m thankful it’s business as usual for us. But I wish... 1 Quote
