Title: Need some -30 weather
Post by: 30-30 on Dec 15, 2011, 05:49 PM

Spent the summer converting a big travel trailer to an ice shack.......just need some real cold here to safely get it out.  Thing is a tank.

Guess it will be the portable for the next few days at least.

Good to see so many of the regular posters back here again!!

Good fishing to all!!!!

Wow.  More balls that I have.  Of course, depends on how far north too.  I will be patient because the trailer is probably 2000 pounds and I will be using a full size 4x4 truck.  Lot of weight.  Not the way I plan to die!!

be careful.... a buddy who lives in petersfield says the ice on the west side is very unstable this year. Check for yourself before dragging the shack out.

Thanks man.  We are going to plug holes as we go, but if it gets stupid, we are out of there!
