It's coming. Spoke with the weather reporter at nj.com. This wknd gets cold and daytime temps north of 78 corridor will hover around freezing and below with nighttime temps in the teens. Should be enough to lock up smaller water bodies and some coves. Some long range models look promising too.

FLAAAAAAAGGGGG!

I'm just hoping the early week cold snap doesn't lock up Hopatcong so I can take my boat out and go musky fishing next Wednesday.

I bet you’ll be able to go ice fishing on the coves on Wednesday. When the wind dies down Saturday early morning most places in the state will lock up and it will be below freezing with almost no wind for at least 2 days. I might try to get out there Wednesday. I’ve hit the ice 9 times so far this season but haven’t gone for muskie yet.

I hear ya. This is a wicked cold snap. Hope I can find a launch somewhere this week but this is ice making stuff. I'd take the sled out but going kitty fishing in VA next weekend and tarpon fishing in FL the week after.

after bouncing around to find open water saturday with the boat and ending up not doing too well (though squatch landed a hefty smallie and the first ever NJ reservoir salmon! not sure if he wants to share with you guys ) not many options sunday, but we wanted to ice fish so we got out on some good solid uniform 3" ice. It was slow but again squatch caught two nice fish including a big pickerel and a big perch.

I pretty much just went to slime dart city...you guys are going to have to beg squatch for the real pictures! and btw if anyone is in the market for new boots, the cabela's inferno boots were like a furnace on my feet and they are still on sale i think! hopefully they are durable to last a long time, but only time will tell...all i know is they're warm as hell!
