Good Morning Folks, just sitting here drinking some coffee watching it rain.  221 days until the start of Ice Fishing in Maine. If Worthings goes to float for their smelt shacks then I heard he might open up the week after Hunting season which is the end of November early December.  ;D ;D ;D. Back to reality :-[ well at least the coffee is good.  max
I was born with nothing........and I still have a little bit of it left.

Give it up, guys.  It's Spring.  Of course yesterday was 32 degrees and it snowed all weekend.  Some parts of Michigan had six inches or more.  Maybe I did put the ice gear away too soon. 
I enjoy that perfect peace -- that peace beyond all understanding, which comes at it's maximum, only to the man who has given up golf.

I hope the four wheeler still isn't stuck!  Hey Jim I am heading down to Mt. Union this weekend to do some river fishing.  Wanted to go this weekend, but it was too cold to be wading. 
Bring on the ice!!!!!!!  <br />

Give up? GIVE UP? never. Giving up is the same as quiting and I never quit! If arch and I keep trying long enough we will figure out a way to walk on water ;D. Heck, it wouldn't be the first time it ever happened :angel. Russ, I'll be in mill creek this weekend hunting. I'd give you my cell number and we could meet for lunch but there is no reception up there. Did you get your little helpful present yet?

Man you guys must be from eastern Canada. Probably Ontario or Manitoba. We don't drive this late on our lakes here in BC. If we do we build ramps from shore out to good ice. That ice is not for driving on boys but good for walking on for sure. Sorry I won't be getting up to high elevation lakes this year but a buddy likes to go and catch some bows. He has gotten 8 months on ice last year fishing up higher. I will see if he can take his camera next time he goes. Doesn't have a digital though but I can scan.
