Normally ice fishing by early December, but with this unusually warm month, not a spec of ice in sight. Took advantage of our winter rules that allow for multiple lines, less than 45 minutes to get results. My first December carp ever.

Spot I fished yesterday is normally covered in solid ice with some ice fishing huts on there by this time of year.

Tons of fun with the kids. That was further up North and at higher elevation, still waiting for safe ice to form closer to home. Cold front should dip us into the -20 range for a couple nights, so should have some ice around here later this week, as long as the 18 inches of snow doesn't provide too much insulation. Probably a foreign concept to most of y'all on this forum.

Now I remember why I moved from Great Falls Mt to sunny South Texas to retire. Great Pics of some great fish. Thanks.
