Well, today WAS going to be 1st day of the season!
« on: Dec 08, 2014, 08:46 AM »
Went to go start the truck this morning and for some reason my key was missing on the key ring. I called my fiancé, who was on her way to work, and asked where it was. Apparently, today was the right day out of the whole year to get a spare key ( which I obviously don't have ). So now I'm home staring out the window picturing that big early ice pike that won't be caught by me today. I've invested a lot for this season and the weather has been frustrating, so I'm a little mad to say the least. But, it's one of those things where there is not much you can do I guess. Good luck to the few guys I've seen going out today and be safe!

Now that you've got spare time on your hands, today would probably be a good day to change all the locks in the house lol.

Lol! That's great.
Looking like I will be going with a friend this afternoon. I don't like wasting half a day but at this point I'll take what I can get.

No, I proposed last March on an ice fishing trip in Maine. She likes to ice fish as much as I do. Which is one reason I figured I needed to keep her around ;)

Oh man that's good!
I'll add...
My fiance liked ice fishing, my wife didn't care for it much, my ex wife absolutely hates it, my girlfriend loves it.
I think I might wait a couple more years before I go ring shopping again.  :P

She was probably mad that you weren't taking her with you!

Sometimes I get nervous that my wife doesn't like me anymore and has a secret insurance policy on me. Always encourages me to get out on the ice and have at it.

TRUE STORY:

A Guy I know started on his way to work. His car door was locked - unusual. Pulled out his keys. Car key was gone. Went back to the house the door was locked. Pulled out his keys. the key didn’t fit. The start of a bad day...... ;D

I've got a few buddies that go out every weekend and complain the entire time or do nothing aside from drink.
I often wonder why they even go until I hear a phone start ringing.  ::)

Best thing I ever did was quit drinking. My fishing is so much more productive and I have a lot more money to spend on gear ;)
