This is as of now down the street from my house at the 9th line. Unless this wind quits, it'll be a while yet. She's ready to go, just need a couple calm nights.

The winds are supposed to die off for a day or so sunday and monday. I think (hope) this will be when she snaps shut. I'll take a pic a day until this happens. The hut's waiting patiently in the driveway, ready to go. Hopefully we'll be out on opening day this year.

Last year I rented a shanty a few times and this year I have gone all out! Got my self shelter, a stove, and a gas powered auger! When do you think realistically it would be good enough to go out there? Just for Perch for now I guess?

I can tell you we were fishing in safe ice out of Port Bolster on Jan 10th lady season. I think we might be a week or two ahead of that this year but things can change quickly. Congrats on the gear purchase, a gas auger and new hut, are you looking to take a machine out? It may be quite a bit longer before it's safe for machines with the exception of maybe an Argo.

How would that work? If I put my stuff on a sled, and see someone heading out, offer to drill their ice for a ride out?
