Yesterday, the bite was pretty slow with this high pressure. There was action, but mostly smalls. Some rentals were out overnight, and the best action there was shallow.
Time was spent clearing roads and moving rentals and permanents that were requested last weekend to get ahead for the weekend. Currently, the forecast doesn’t look like there is much snow. Seeing snow depths and drifts after the wind, we will not be plowing wheelhouse spots, as they will not be needed until we get more snow. Most drifting isn’t much over 8″-10″, and there are a lot of areas with very little. Rough shale ice areas acted like snow fences farther out in our gravel bars and caught a fair amount of snow. Having chains if you are going “off-roading” in that area it might be a good idea to have them with.
Our weekend wheelhouse list has started. On weekends, we will limit the number of houses that go out of our access so everyone has some room and can be away from others. Wheelhouses will need to be out on the ice before dark and set up so it will be quiet for others out there. I do not let houses out after dark for that reason.
Permanents need to call 24 hours in advance for a driveway or other service for the weekend. On rentals: a person with the name James Gunter (405 area code) ,the number comes ups disconnected, has not confirmed their reservation for one of our deluxe rentals yet and needs to. He or anyone that knows him reads this,he should call our office asap.
The weather forecast is for a warm-up throughout this week and a big cool-down starting Saturday through Monday, which more than likely will mean strong NW winds. Something to be aware of.
Keep a Tight Line!
