Boy I wished that I could go!!! I'm to busy to get away from work.

I will be over there next week. I'm waitin till duck season closes

The wind laid down for perfect conditions and I thought it was really going to be good. Unfortunately the fish didn't care. With a water temp of 34-36 degrees they decided to stay in bed for the day. Got one decent fish and lost another at the boat. They were the only 2 bites I had all day.
We need a few days of warm sunshine to bring the lake up or 40 degrees before I head out again.

It does not look as if we will get any temps up enough to raise the water temp in the next 10 days. 11 for a low on Thursday night will make the water a little hard on the surface.

You got that right! Right now I'd settle for above freezing temps

So when does duck season close? I've been chomping on the bit wanting to go but dang the freakin temperatures are saying otherwise. I caught some good fish last year in feb in the lower blue but it was a might bit warmer then the teens were getting this week. 1st day it his 45 with light wind count me in....

Regular duck season closes Sunday January 26 and I'm not 100% certain but I think the youth hunt is the next weekend, Feb 1-2. I don't mind the water temp being 38, I just don't want to mess up those guys that are hunting. There's plenty of time to fish.
