what would you like to know? I'm fine. the snow is melting. the ice is 30 inches thick.

most of the camps are moving their first week guests to week 2 or later. there are reports of some die hard fishermen out there who plan on coming for the opening weekend and taking their chances but I just looked at the long range forecast (14 days) and they are still calling for nighttime temps of below freezing until the 10th of May,

right now, it's blowing at 40 km/hr with gusts over 50 so maybe this will help knock the ice down, but there isn't much rain in the forecast to help it rot.

I did see water in bug river where the creek from the highway enters so there is hope for fishing bug river on opening day

sorry for the bad news report, but it is what it is

Thanks Bill. We've already switched from May 17 to May 31.

How soon will you be sitting on your lawn chair soaking a minnow and puffing a cigar at the Bug River Bridge?

Don't sit too close to the water as those huge pike will be looking for an easy meal.

went to town this afternoon and looks like there is a bit, just a bit of open water under the bridge, so it might make me wet a line in the next week. as far as the cigars go, gave them up, doctors orders. but the side effects of them are still being felt. I needed something to replace them so I took up eating, now I think I'm going to have to reinforce the lawn chair to hold the extra weight.
