I have heard Moses is starting to skim over. Any truth to this? If so anyone have a thickness on it? This weather it has to be makin ice.
-
There's was a boat out in front of the I-90 perch hole Thursday afternoon that had ice all around closing in on him, I'm heading over that way tomarrow I'll check it out, but it has been freezing temps since then....
-
Perfect on both count's!! Thanks
-
Yes it's slowly freezing up, it's not supposed to be over 28 for the next few days

That's makin Ice and couldn't be better!!
-
after today its really going to chill, should be good ice soon
-
@ 24 won't be long until I can walk on water!!!
-
Moses is covered, should be putting on some thickness quickly! Been calm, very little wind lately. Hope it gets thick enough for me to feel safe out there.
-
My feel safe thickness is when I see 7 or more people on the ice.
This coming weekend's forecast is down to 5 degrees. That should put the icing on the cake.
-
my comfort level is when I see fat people out on the ice.

And here's the report I am looking for!!! C-money when it get's ready would you let me know. With the projected weather temps I can hope maybe this coming weekend.
On a side note buddy from work went through Eloika yesterday. Just up to his bravery markers.

Wife said she saw some folks out on Moses Lake yesterday....cant imaging the ice is anywhere near thick enough. Did not hear of any ice rescues. Fishing this weekend may be an option!

I saw 4 out fishing Moses yesterday as I was driving over to Big R to buy a new snow shovel. Also yesterday the driving on the back roads was just like being back on the wet side with the slippery snow roads. I spun an AWD out driving down to check out the top end of the Potholes. You know if your wife is in the vehicle and starts screaming, eventually she gets into a high enough frequency that it's inaudible. My dog still noticed it though.

You forgot the slamming of the imaginary break peddle. But that is so true!!

It was a long enough slide that I had time to test out the "turn in the direction of the skid and apply the gas". Dang, that person was right. It straightens right out... but you're going faster on the ice than before.
About 35 people out fishing Moses today.

I think they suggest to "GENTLY" apply the gas.

missed that part.
-
How big are the perch running?
-
Lind Coulee shouldn't be too far out.

I walked out onto a pond yesterday to try to get a woodie pic. Love hearing that CRACK. Tracks filled up with water later. I am thinking Ill stick to dry land for a bit. LOL

Pucker factor? 7 or 8?

Yike!! That could have been a very chilly adventure!!

:yike: I used to trap a series of ponds that really required ice to be able to navigate and I have pushed it more than once. That CRACK is surely terrifying.
-
It was pucker 7, only because I knew how deep it was. If I was on unknown water, or Moses, I'd have been 10 plus.
-
I still remember my first time ice fishing and the ice started popping. I didn't know it at the time that its growing when that happens. My buddy was laughing his butt off as I am dropping my gear and looking for the closest land. It took a while to get used to that.
-
Someone has to have done a thickness check, heard it is only about 2 inches and someone went through yesterday.
-
Not sure how thick it is, but there has been 30-40 people on it all week.

never got used to the cracking and popping sounds. scary. suppose most water is froze up good. mike w
-
It was 2 when I went to work yesterday. 4 this morning and topped out at 16. I would think that would do it for moses.
-
After the warmer temps this last week any one got a report on the hard water?
-
yeah.... they were still out icefishing this morning. The high was 33 degrees so what's that say?
