We had a good time the first year we did this. We had bad weather last year for it. So I am going to try again this year.
It will be February 16th at Pymatuning.

Gary, Keep me posted, I should be around that weekend. Ed
We may be game for that...that is a 3 day weekend again for me, and i could use another cabin stay at the park, those were nice.
Me and the Wee Man would probably be game for that too.
if we have good ice a buddy and I are in..have been dying to fish pymatuning for years!
Do you guys go after walleye or perch or something else?
We normally try for walleye or crappie
Planning on starting to ice fish for the first time today. Slowly getting some gear together. Was planning on fishing for trout but I may be interested in this if my woork schecule allows.

*** not today, I meant this winter.
I am in unless something comes up.
I have yet to be able make any HPA event. I believe I can make this one and hopefully Pymie will be frozen, and the BIG crappies and perch will cooperate!
As long as the ice is good I'll go.
Gary, You hear anything regarding the ice? This snow could kill it. I may give it a shot this weekend.
I was going to take a ride up there tommorow, but I have a funeral that I have to be at. I will take a ride there one day this week and see how the ice is.
Reports all over the place on iceshanty.com

One says 5" then 10' way it's an auger turn and trough.

Another says 4" with the top inch white.

Another says Manning beach 5"

Another says 13 cars at tuttle swimbeach and 4 cars at orchard launch and 3 cars at the bottom of wexford rd. new swim beach has plenty of ice fishermen today(02-06-13).
I'll put this back on page 1 since its coming up this weekend....
We are out...going down to see my folks this weekend, we need a change of scenery.
I am going to go check the ice tommorow.
