Early Ice Fishing in MN

Any bets on early ice this year?? Usually i am ice fishing by Thanksgiving but there has not been a really hard freeze as of yet. The grass is still growing and it does not look like really cold weather in the future. The early ice fishing is some of the best since the fish are coming into the shallow water and going after anything that moves. If you can plan a last minute vacation i would suggest to keep a eye on the ice an try an get the first fish out of the lake.
