Hi, Yuck ! -> The next few days this week, per the NOAA Wx report, says for higher day time temps and Rain. :cry: What waters may have had decent ice remaing -> is definitely not going to survive this 4-5 day stretch of Wx. Went to my academy, Massachusetts Maritime, on Cape Cod Sunday to audition Monday morning for 1 of 5 professional mariner's movie speaking rolls of my alumnis Capt. Richard Phillips capture by Somali pirates in 2009 on the M/V Maersk Alabama. (Tom Hanks will be playing the part of Capt. Phillips). Since I'm retired -> Thought this might be a fun thing to do! :D Took the lazy long way home Monday via Rt. 20 west from Worcester, Ma. to Rt. 8 south, Becket, Ma. ICE :?: Not one Lake - Pond - Puddle - Pudlet -> I passed on Rt. 20 had any ice what so ever! -> All Open Water! Only ice I saw was coming down Rt.8 from 20 in Otis, Ma. and the north end of Colebrook Res. -> What condition the ice was in I have no idea -> looked for drilled ice holes but saw none if that tells you anything. :shock: Got back to Winsted and home at 5:30 PM -> Too tired to check any other waters here in the NW corner. -> Maybe tomorow.

Hey SD, being from Mass, we used to head to that part of the state for early open water. We used to be able to launch down by rt 20Worcest,Auburn,Sturbridge) almost a month earlier than on our home lake. It was cool to be able to boat fish in one part of the state and still ice fish at home. It's part of living in New England I guess.
