hello and thanx to all

first of all let me say that i have been visiting this site for some time now(just decided to register). this is only my second year ice fishing although i have been warm weather fishing for as long as i can remember. last season i did ok. minimal equipment/knowhow. but this season i can honestly say that i have done ten times better and it is mostly due to all of the great ideas, techniques and advice from all of you on this site. just browsing through the forum archive has answered all of my questions and then some. thank you all so much for helping to teach me the fine art of hardwater fishing.
sincerely,
icechipper

Welcome to the Shanty Icechipper. Glad to hear you found some value in the rantings of a bunch of crazy ice fishers.

Iceshipper - As a relative newbie to the site myself, there is'nt a day that goes by that I don't check this site out. I have learned a lot and have even taken some tips about jigs and applied them on fishing trips and found out what works best for me under certain cirsumstances. It won't be long before you have your own personal style and favorite technique, one that you will forever be tinkering with. Good luck!!

Welcome icechipper. There are a ton of people here with two tons of info available. Have a good time but remember, when you start spending many hours a day here you'll have to join a local support group.

Welcome icechipper. Pull up a 5 gallon pail, open up a beer and set a spell. We're talking fishing here.

Another male has found paradise but probably will soon forget the name of his wife and kids, his job, bills and payments, his favorite porn sites, personal hygene and so forth. He will slowly fade from their memories as well and soon, will drift quietly away with his 5 gallon buckets filled with tip ups, hot cocoa,sandwiches and his dog. He will go to a better place of never ending ice fishing, horrid fishing lies, smelly shacks and eternal cribbage games. Truely a man's world.

Good thing about prisons- they reduce the potential number of fisherman on the ice!

Icechipper, even when Ice out comes, you don't gain any sainity back, all you do is wish for ice again and keep looking foreward for the next year, it is a never ending circle. Welcome to the elite group of HARDWATER NUTS

bugman, you are all too correct. i've already been making plans for next hardwater season. got it marked on the calendar. gonna go back down to my old stompin' grounds in new baltimore and fish anchor bay off of lake st. clair. i know in the summer there is some really nice fish to be had and i've been told the ice fishing is even better but out of the ten years i lived there i never went icefishing once! thats alright it took me a while but i'm catchin' on.
