Yah it has been slow. I just take it as all our members are out there enjoying the outdoors and not behind their key boards.. We are headed out again this afternoon for a spell again.

Ah man, Sonny, you're killing me.  ;)
I am still in summer mode.  Even hunting for me doesn't start till Nov 1.
I was out yesterday on the open water catching a few trout yet.  Water is getting cold though.
Getting out on the early ice for rainbows is always a blast and I hope to do that this year.
Here is a fish I caught yesterday:

I'm with walleyes.  A little early and I usually start thinking about it after hunting season.  December is usually the month my wife can count on me being around, after using all my time hunting in Sept through November.  By Christmas I am itching to get out and there is usually enough ice here in the south to start fishing.

           This is maybe the first year I've started thinking about ice fishing before hunting season is over but it's been a crazy busy year work wise and ice fishing season usually coincides with work not so dang nuts season :).

Bring on the ice... for some reason I love the limitations of ice fishing.  Makes it more challenging.

Just spent a week on the Hay, you can still fish there and there is lots of them. the only reason I would like snow is to help tracking. Take your fly rod and go have some fun.

Sonny you got your wish, the snow has stayed on the ground for three day above town, the ice was about 100 yds from shore last night. Need more snow, less cold. Kid still has not found a moose but we are trying hard south of town.

Didn't get near any lakes today but the beaver dams are froze over, more snow staying in the shade. sunny spots are frozen and the swamps are getting stiff.
