That is this mornings webcam shot and it is a beautiful day today in Jackman...the sun is out and the temperature is about 20, a weather report very similar to last year at this time. With that being said, who will be able to guess the ice out date this year : Last year it was on April 19th. Below are some weather tidbits to help you along the way.

As you can see in this photo, (sorry for the trees) taken today,



they are still ice fishing all over the lake and in some areas, they have said they need an auger extension. Our snowmobilers are still riding across the lake with no signs of melt or slush along the shoreline. (In town trails are getting bony)

Below is a snapshot of the east side of Big Wood where the Moose River outlet begins. I see one fisherman has moved his shack. Wonder what he knows.



The temperatures this past week have only hit 40 a couple times. Otherwise our daytime temps have been low 30s and at night mostly 20 or less.

So how this will work:
