Au Gres River Mini Report

C-C-COLD-D-D!

January has been a very cold month. (Global Warming eh?)

Average 30 day High:  25 degrees,  and these highs were usually for less than one hour in the afternoon.

Average 30 day Low: 7 degrees, with 7 nights below Zero.

Top this off with nearly continuous winds,  and we get a pretty grim wind chill factor.  (currently -6 degrees)

There have been enough snowmobile ice fishermen to need two hands to count them,  and there are a few shanties out off of Point AuGres.  River’s Edge store up town is closed,  so the only minnows available locally are those north of town,  at the NorthPort Store, (recently reopened).  There’s currently about 8 inches of snow on the river ice, and 9 or 10 inches of ice on the river.   Wish I could give a better fishing report,  but the Doc, still say’s no cold weather activities for me.
