23 degrees up here this afternoon, low tonight about 10 degrees, high tomorrow 26 degrees, low tomorrow night 11 degrees, then lows in the 20's and highs in the 30's until the bottom falls out nine days from now. Time to winterize the X170?

Me thinks maybe......

I rarely think so you have challunged me. Unless you put on the river or head south your not using your boat.

I got one on a figure 8 yesterday afternoon with 41 degree water temps. Woke up this morning to 12 degrees and an inch of snow. Colder tonight and tomorrow but 40 degrees forcasted for fri, sat, sun with lows only down to upper 20's. There might be 2-3 days of fishing left for me. I hope!

Looks like we might be breaking ice this weekend over here in Western MN. Some lakes are starting to skim.

I am sure the lakes will be freezing over, but what about Boom and the river?

Go south- Bwaaaaaa. Thats for lesser individuals. Follow in Todd Forcier's footsteps, turn it into the Icebreaker SS X170, although its advisable to check the keel guard regularly.

Have fun!

Out east we still have 50 degree water on the Niagara River, snowing tonight but back up in the 50's by the weekend.Just need the wind to lay down enough to get water visability clean enough to catch fatties! Should get out a few more days through December 15th here.

I would rather be watching my boat's depth finder than sitting around waiting to drill holes in the ice. At the same time, cheers to all deer hunters who have snow on the ground for the opener!

I figure Pelican should still be accessible this weekend while smaller lakes in the area might have near fishable ice. We'll see.

Winterized my boat Saturday and tucked it away til next spring. Colder weather has me thinking gun hunting and ice fishing. Lucky for me, I have vacation to use for the rifle season this year. Who knows, may even get out on the ice that week!

I figure one weekend left here. Water temps were 37.5 this weekend, supposed to warm up late this week, the lake should be good. Besides, I've broke ice before, I'll do it again.

Ice on Sunday Lake in town though already.

Water is 42 in the Metro. Probably at least another week, but after that all bets are off. One more cold snap and we are probably wrapped up. I doubt I'll be fishing post Turkey Day like I did last year...

Never got out of the 20's today, 18 now. Looks like a hard rain Thursday, in the 30's, than another cold snap all the way through until April.

I don't think you should put it away until it can't break through the ice... Crank

Hoping to fish St Clair Sat & Sun.....up into the 50's.......up there? I'd winterize. I'm too old for much cold open water fishing.
(but still hoping to hit some fat Erie Walleyes before it gets too bad!)

Looks like a couple days of decent weather this weekend, then the bottom falls out. MIGHT get the rig out Sunday if it's not pouring, can't fish Saturday because my grandsons birthday party is a bit more important.

Gonna use the weekend warm up to troll walleye on the lake where I live. Gotta GPS those spots on spots I found over the summer, hard water is around the corner.

Took my Alumacraft in this morning to get winterized. Tossed rubber late last week and my shoulder still hasn't settled down. Might try a couple of small rivers with the drift boat yet. Hate to call it a season.

Any report, Steve? I blanked on LSC, but caught some nice perch in 30mph+ winds this afternoon on Erie.
Tornado watch tonight is keeping me home. I know, I know.....I'm a sissy.....
