It never fails...
I FINALLY have everything in place to head for the lake this weekend. Only one problem: Cold front with 20-30 MPH winds arriving before dawn Saturday morning. ARRGH!!!!!!

I iced fish back in 92 on Wald Lake in Michigan. It was pretty freaky though seeing all them vehicles out on the uhhhh ice. Wasn't for me. I would've made a bad Eskimo. Go fish the wind Reb. At least you get to go fishing.

Well look at it this way Reb. When I cast a jig or toss a spinnerbait, they just bounce and slide on the ice, lol. But good luck out there. Find a sheltered cove and hunker down. And oh yeah, it's 3 below zero here.

I just got in off the lake for the first time this winter, I walked all over it. Drilled a bunch of holes and didn't even see any fish on the sonar. I don't really know much about ice fishing but it helps to pass the time.

Yeah, it must be tough to be able to actually fish. It warmed up so I went out in the yard and casted a new reel I had just cleaned. The barn cats stalked the practice plug as I casted around the yard.The highlight of the day, just being able to cast in the yard for an hour or so. P N J |

When its warm enough to fish that is for the most part all I do when it comes to fishin, well besides visiting the Forum thats about it though, as far as all the maintenance and the work that I do on my equiptment, such as cleaning my reels, organizing my lures, researching & learning new info. on the internet, all that gets done this time of year, anyways its all just a part of it.

I've got to add to the rant.....Couple of groups had plans to take some local kids out on the "hot" side of the lake tomorrow. We had a great time last year and the water is always in the 50-70 degree range. Well this year the Home Owners Association that controls the ramp decided to not allow the event or any tournaments.............basterds. Sucks.
Zooker - you fish in the snow last week. Saw you were getting some snow and wondered if you were on the water. Buzzbait bass in a snow storm - yeah! Last edited by 3dkicker; 01-24-09 at 08:27 PM. |
