Random question but I'm trying to get my gear in order for the upcoming season. Just wondering how cold it gets out there

I'm sure its pretty warm early season
 
I've seen temperatures out a twister at + 100 degrees on opening day weekend. Temperatures at SJ on opening weekend highs of 90-95. I seen temperatures at SJ cold enough to forum ice over night on some of the larger pond. Temperatures range from one extreme to the other it seems like. Good luck with the revamp of your gear.

Thanks man. I had it easy out at Kern last year. Temps were fairly consistent
 
Lowest I saw San Jac was 18 degrees driving out on the car temp gauge. Ice on all water. Highest, over 100 at San Jac one time. Wister, hot all the time when there's no wind in my opinion. After the time change mornings can be a little chilly, but usually warms up in the afternoon.
 
I've hunted in 100-degree weather and I've had to break ice in the ponds (although not very thick) so that's the range. And, you could just about have either at any time during the season around here except for the real cold about the first month of the season.

The early season at Wister can be brutal. Need to be off the pond by 9-10 otherwise you are burning up. Usually will have 1 week of extreme cold between thanksgiving and christmas but will warm up quick when the sun comes up
