First skim ice on my small ponds a few days ago and this morning the main pond was skimmed over half of it. Skim ice on the Thanksgiving weekend means safe ice by Xmas -- old Farmer's Almanac forecast. Get your gear ready, don't be a season behind. Early ice is always the best ice.

I've still got my Vexilar, And I bought a 10 gallon aerated bait bucket from a fellow on FB, And I organized and tuned my tip-ups last year (after I was finally able to get out) And I bought a quad to get me out on the ice... So yeah, I have faith!!!
I've been known to shut down the entire Atlantic Seaboard just thinking about headed out for a day.
