James here in Laramie, not a lot of gear or money, but i got a truck a hut and a hand full of ice roads. Usually fish the plains lakes but wanna try to hit the alpine lakes one of these days, particularly Owen. Usually fish for whatever's biting, and will occasionally keep one or two to stink up a frying pan.
I would be willing to help some new folks on Boysen, just let me know..
My friend has been bugging me to take her fishing. Whatta you guys think, the Gorge, Pathfinder, Alcova or Boysen? She's only like asked me 20 times. I told her that she'd have to drill all my holes for me if i took her out. maybe we could finally meet some of you guys!
I am Jay(35), haven't been ice fishing in at least 16 years. My college days and ski bum days are over and its time to start doing the family friendly stuff again. Dads ice fishing gear has been in the barn for at least 15 years, so I think I am going to have to buy all new gear this year. Planning on a trip to boysen this next week (probably thursday). Back in the day we did well in the coves around trout bay. Haven't heard much about the area but I figure I will give it a try. I will be in the grey gmc. and will most likely be pulling my 2 year old in his sled checking lines.
I am still a nube here so I cant pm you back I guess wyofarmer. My old mans gear is the 3 stick tip ups. I think they were home made. probably depends on what they were made of. If they are pine they are probably a little on the moldy side. The Jiffy auger is going to take some major work to get running. It only ran half the time 16 years ago, so not very hope full on that end .
