Message: <blockquote data-quote="onpoint!" data-source="post: 209374" data-attributes="member: 2703">i remember a number of years ago standing in at least one foot of water on top of the ice, trying to get my shanty wheels lowered (handyman jack) so i could pull it off of the snow-ladened lake before it froze solid that night, or it was destined to become fish structure. there were lots of us pulling houses off that day!  i've cut it close before, but that year i and many others were caught with a warm forecast immediately following a couple of big spring storms. fast-forward to last week... late winter storm dumps about a foot of snow followed by strong winds. many bailed off the lake ahead of the storm, but some didn't.  i took the sled out yesterday and noted the road was plugged solid and the drifts on the lake may stop anything less than a tracked vehicle. while there were only a couple of isolated houses remaining in the area, it'll be interesting to see if/how they get removed before the melt (i do know that there's a considerable depth of ice today and it'll take some time to deteriorate under the snow blanket, but who'd want to take a skidder/plow across 30fow to test it - IF you could even get to the lake's edge?) And you have about 3 days to the 15th NDGF deadline...wonder if there's a plan B for guys if they can't get out before the snow hits late in the year - maybe a service that'll move your house if you can't get to it due to time or access (before or after storms).</blockquote>

Verification: What is the most common fish caught on this site?
