    I wondered if they'd be coming out early. It's been real warm here too!

    yup, it seems a few warm days will bering them out for a bit. Last year ice fishing it was -20 in Feb. and we saw one walking the lakeshore. I suspect something must have found its den and scared it out though.

    Like JimT said, your males will not totally den up in the winter. They will actually come out if you get a few warmer days in a row to feed.
