    I have spoken to a few and I will be heading out to our fishing location around 5am. I know a few are planning on arriving around that time. Please feel free to arrive at whatever time you would like!

    I am making brats and bringing beer. I am also making a monster pot of hot chocolate with Rumplemintz. Not sure what else I am bringing yet.

    We are going to work on Friday night to plow a road from the boat ramp to the location that we will be fishing. The boat ramp is already plowed and easy to get on and off the ice for those of you that would like to drive on the lake. I will work tomorrow to get a map posted here on the forum from my house to the ramp for everyone.

    I heard rumors that a bunch of others were coming but none of them are chiming in here on the thread. Anyone know if Justin and Duke are still planning on attending?

    I just spoke with SevenMag and he is planning on coming by for some drinks later in the day. Who else is planning on attending?

    I know I mentioned this earlier but in order to fish you have to purchase 5 tickets and get a wrist band. In addition to being able to register fish the tickets also get you entries into all the giveaways. So even if you are not fishing I encourage everyone to purchase a few. I have some but several people from my office have purchased them so I need to get more. If everyone could please give me an idea of how many more I need to get and I will pick them up Wednesday night.

    Thanks!

    Well I am not a graphic artist but this should give a good idea of where my house is, boat ramp for those driving on the ice and where we will be fishing.

    After speaking with Isaiah this morning I think we are planning on arriving Friday evening and getting everything all set up. As of now the plan is to stay out on the ice all night. If anyone would like to arrive Friday let me know. I have room in the house for a few to sleep also.

    I stopped and picked up more tickets for everyone. Those of you that are coming by tomorrow night I would like to get these turned in right away so bring a few bucks. $5 to enter tournament. Each ticket is a raffle entry so you are encouraged to purchase as many as you would like!

    I will do some fishing just as long as it doesn't get in the way of my fishing.
