I bet you'll be able to launch and fish most of the lake apr first,YAAAHOOOO!!!!BARRY

I think you are right. I bet it will be fishable on the 1st.

A good 50 feet of open water from shore to the edge of the ice all along the shore in front of our house. Usually this time of year I'm driving my snowmobile across it to go ice fishing. If this weather keeps up sure seems like it will be an early ice out. Starting to seriously think about cleaning up the boat and getting it ready.

Was in Meredith today. Tons of open water around the town docks and 3 bob houses on the other side of the open water.

Sucks though if Ice out happens before April 1st because we cant get out there to fish anyways LOL I am hopeful though that on te 1st I will be out there first thing in the morning!!!
