Self awareness is important.

you must have plenty of time for that with 700" of snow blocking your doors.

Wow, I just realized your right.

 

We do get quite a bit on snow here.

I dropped the boat off at the mechanic today to get a few things done. He said the ice on their lake was gone as of yesterday and they were putting the piers in today. My home lake still has ice. Sunny and 50* today. I think we're done with winter finally. Got my fingers crossed.

I think you're correct, we finally made it.  Getting the boat ready tomorrow.

So, after 2 months of this being posted I just gotta know, has Spring arrived for you guys or you´re still waiting for it ?

 

I´m still waiting fot the temps to hit 100°.

For me - It's Yes & No.

 

50 here today and there have been geese flying south for a week or so; always a good sign. 

Several pairs of robins have been sighted as well.

Unfortunately, they are finding the worm picking a bit tough because of the foot of snow with still remains. 

Along with the lake ice, it's all melting away slowing.  Air temps are forecasted to be above freezing over night which is the biggest sign that we are heading in the right direction . . . . . .finally.

I'm hearing estimates the Chain should be free of ice by mid to end of the week

In other words, you guys haven´t thawed yet.

 

Look at it on a brighter side, you guys up North will still look young ( of course, you live under natural refrigeration   ) many years from now, while me, I just turned 50 and when I see my face on the mirror every morning I have this image .... kinda like I´m lookin´ at a piece of beef jerky.

Saw Katherine and Channel yesterday, they were about 1/3 thawed.  Shouldn't be much longer, like you said, by the weekend for sure.  Problem is, they're dumping water out of the system, it's mighty low.  ugh!

Yeah, They'll bring it down to winter pool to bring it up again in 3 weeks.   I posted the link for the Chain levels in the IL thread

Raul at 57, natural refrigeration or not, I am looking more than a little weathered. I am so white at this point that if I were naked in the snow you would have a tough time seeing me!

You people are just starting to bass fish and I'm just about done with it until November.  

Cold front moved through the area yesterday.  Temp right now is 32.
