Lakes Region Sportsman: Ice is nice – and Sebago has it
The news we have all been waiting for: There is ice on Sebago Lake! Well, on Jordan Bay, at least. After a strange winter with mild temps followed by an arctic blast, Jordan Bay caught and currently has 5-7 inches of ice in almost all spots. The recent big storm and high winds resulted in […]
