Well I was just sitting hear dreaming about ice as it got to 24 degrees last nite (YEAH!!!).  When I had to go and see when I first got out on the ice last season.  It happened to be 12-1-08.  I was wondering when everyone else out there got to get out for there first time last year.  I figured it would make a interesting post with all the different areas of the world on this cool site!!  f-n-f

I was out on the ice last year on December 20.  I could have gotten out on the 13th of December but I was a little too much of a chicken.... Whistling

11/22/08 on about 2 1/2".  I've got a pic of my FL-18 on the ice and it looks like it's floating.  The pic is dated, but I don't think I can post pics yet because I'm too new.

Dec. ninth for me (southern PA), but I had to drive over two hrs. Well worth it though. Grin I know guys were fishing some higher elevation lakes the last week of Nov., but I pretty much need four in. to feel safe. 2.5 in. and I look like this. Shocked

ice fishing is necessary, just like breathing, eating and hot chocolate

Last day of deer season last year, whatever day that was, late November.  I could have got out a week earlier, but I "had" to hunt deer.

December 6, 2008 in Northern Indiana, which was WAY early for us from what I've been told.

Target this year:  Thanksgiving weekend in Michigan or December 5th in Northern Indiana again.
