When it is blizzarding so bad you get sent home from work due to the weather conditions and you head for the lake. Been there and done that.  ;D

When you hear the winning lottery numbers on the radio, you check the ticket in your pocket and you are the lucky winner but, you won't leave your "honeyhole" on the ice to go and claim the money! :o ;D That's  dedication! :tipup:

You know that fatheads are not some oversized poster replica of your favorite athlete that you put on your wall.

You've used "I'm going ice fishing" in an attempt to get out of a traffic ticket.

Swedish Pimples don't refer to some skin disease.

the only bite of the day comes when you walk away to relieve yourself.

Your entire family thinks you're insane because you'd rather take your winter vacation somewhere cooler, rather than the beach.

While waiting for ice you fill up your bathtub with water just to watch the actions on your new swimming lures (jigging raps and chubby darters). Of course you pay extra special attention making sure you only use cold water!!

It's a fine line between fishing & sitting on the ice like an idiot

When you come home and tell the wife to close her eyes. Making her think you have unwrapped x-mas presents. ::)  Really the bag is FULL of jigs and the other hand has a new rod case in it. :o  Better hurry to the man room! ;D  (me getting home from fishing last night.) What can I say, Cabelas was on the way home. ;)

When your on midnights and instead of sleeping you go fishing.

My fiance and I are purposly getting married in the winter so we can honey-moon on Lake of the Woods.  ;D :icefish:
