2019 opening of Trout season

Jan 11 first a 10 pound pickerel then 20 min later a 10 pound lake trout.
Both catch and release. His call not bad for a first time guest @ MLPC

I really thought that ice out would be @ a normal date.
April 18 to 21 plus or minus
I am pretty sure that I am wrong again
What is normal as far as the weather goes now a days?
We still have 18 inches of ice on the Lake and 8 feet of piled up snow on the camp grounds.
Looking like it's going to be later than sooner
No more predictions

The 2016 winter ice fishing season got off to a very slow start due to lack of ice thickness. The first weekend Jan 22 has come & gone. Fishing was good but results (catching) were poor. Hoping /wishing for a better "catching" this weekend coming.

Summer is almost past us. Where has it gone?
Fall is coming.
That's a good thing.
No insects.
The smell of fall & the beauty of our forests surrounds us. You have to be here to appreciate it
