Who else is waiting for the lakes to freeze so we can get out there on the hard water? Went to cabela's and got the rest of the stuff I "needed" for this season!
I love ice fishing but I don't have anyone to go with. I hate being out on the ice by myself especially since I'm very inexperienced and don't have a clue where to go and I hate going where everyone else is because I like to be away from the big groups.
http://www.lake-link.com/Minnesota-Fishing-Reports/ if you didn't know about it here you go, reports give lots of good info on the bite and where the fish are at! WI reports helped me a lot last year when I started fishing the winnebago system!
Was at the ice expo in St Paul yesterday. Go every year and was a pretty good time. Cousin bought a new 16' ice castle this off season so we're itching to get that out. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
We just over hauled our 16' enclosed trailer for a drop down ice shack and are chomping at the bit to get out. Just bought a new frabill one man yesterday to! Ice better come soon. Time to travel north till I find ice if it's not coming to me.
Buddy of mine was out on a local lake Tuesday with about 4" and got his 6 eyes and a nice crappie. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
On one of my panfish lakes I was fishing on two years ago was 10-12". Walking to shore, fell through. Never safe enough! Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
I love ice fishing!!! I had a otter cabin insulated shanty. Used my big buddy heater. Can get the Temps inside the shanty almost up to 70f. I have a little now and can't really go out until she gets older.
I bought the otter 1200 denier lodge last year and LOVE it! Got the frabill this year for early ice and running and gunning because that otter is so darn heavy if your pulling by hand.
Just fishing for sunfish. We weren't far out from shore because of ice conditions. Heading to red lake this weekend if the ice holds up (sounds like they have at least 6in in most places) - Expect to limit out on walleyes each day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
