Yesterday 3:45PM got gas in Haddam and the window wash tray hanging there had skin ice in it!

Skim ICE on my 10 acre backyard pond during a beautiful Fall Sunrise this morning.

Thanks for the update Mike! Keep us posted. We simply must ice-fish together this year. Even if we have to show up at your door, and drag you behind Kapt's quad to the lake. biggrin

Some neighborhood kids ice fished my pond on Monday the 18th, probably three to four inches of ice. Only safe in one shady cove. Another post in another thread mentioned there is four inches of ice with fishermen on Mohawk Pond. With the warm spell the last two days maybe it is unsafe now.

Candlewood has a skim top to bottom. Another week for safe ice.
