How is your season going ?
« on: Jan 21, 2010, 12:16 PM »
So how is everyone's ice season going so far? Mine has been great with my new Artic Armor and a couple flip over shanties. And on top of that, with my unamed fish locator/finder, I am killing the fish and having a blast. How the heck did we ever ice fish before all this new equipment came into being ?

I am having a great season as well.  I only get to fish on weekends, but it's okay, the anticipation builds each day during the week.  This weekend it's out to Skunk Lake.  Yippeeeeeeee :clap:

Season's good- Freezer is half full with another month and a half to go...even been able to give a lot of fish away which I enjoy just as much as catching them...

I think you're doing really good with those electronics because you learned how to catch fish before you added the electronics.

Been a good year so far. The river has been so-so but I've limited out every time on the bay.

Fishing has been good.  Uhhh well probably better than good.  To many fish fries, to much beer.  To many fish to clean.  To much fun?....nah.  Just another year on the ice.

I've had a very good season so far. I've caught more fish this season than any other. Limited six times this season other days the catch was in neighborhood of 12 to 18 with other days with as little as 6 or none. This season I've got more time to get out. So far I'm really enjoying this season.
Just like it, only diffrent.

Our season has been OK. Have had better and have had worse.
Been trying different lakes with good results. Got a tip on a productive lake and will be checking it out in a couple days.

Sounds like we're all having fun on the ice. That's what it's all about.

I brought home 19 nice gills this afternoon. Tomorrow I'm gonna hunker down and watch it rain, then get back out in a couple days.

first three times out it was great.  Last 2 not so much.  I'm trying to get out this week between watching my kids and avoiding the forecasted wind.
