It Begins:

Beaver ponds at my place froze over Saturday night no open water anywhere on the ponds that i could see. Weedy shallow sections on small bays of my main lake also had a skim of ice this morning:

Ice looks amazing when it starts to form. Any fish in that pond?

There are some pike but they are small. They seem to get stunted and have head sizes that don't match their body size.

Learned how to skate on a small pond like that. You could see the fish swimming underneath the clear ice. Are the pike heads this big?

Last report yesterday Koke had some shots of ice forming in sheltered quiet areas of the lake. Next 2 weeks should be good for ice building.
