I expect we'll be fishing hard water on resi's by this time next week. We still have a couple days at a few open spots right now to use the long poles. Could be a very good season on the ice from what I've seen and heard from both Resi's. Hope the rains stay away since both are as clean as they can get right now. It's been many years since the water conditions have been this good going into the ice season. Merry Christmas everyone.
