Have to wonder with all this rain if that's it for the ice season. The forecast for the next week doesn't seem cold enough to make more ice.  |

| Takes a while for 12 inches of ice to go away.....as long as you can get on at edges we can still fish.....as always use caution. |

Is does take a while, but rain really does eat the ice away pretty quickly.
Good job sneaking in the CTFF ice get together before this weather. |

Unstrapped the kayak from storage in the garage ceiling yesterday. Got to mount fishfinder brackets and rod holder.
Swung by Pattagansett last night and noticed an increase in open water. Shouldn't be too long. |
