Your workbench looks like this!


What a mess...time to start organizing between trips.  Don't even mention Marie Kondo.  This all sparks joy.   ;D

Ok, your turn.  YOU know it's ice season, when...

You clearly have some sort of anal retentive/OCD issues. How did that stuff even come into the house in the first place?

I'm embarrassed to even think about what mine looks like.... part moose and caribou hunt, part bison bunt, now ice fishing.

Seriously,

Nice, I'm about the same.  The day after Halloween is the official start of ice season for me.

Hahaha thats the same thing I say. I have a detached 2 car garage one side has the boat in it the other side is all set up to hang deer when and then when that season is over it becomes ice fishing storage
If you sit around all day and do nothing your a bum, but if you sit in a boat all day or in a shanty and do nothing they call you a fisherman

My garage is just a giant staging area for my trips up north.  Right now it stinks like otter cause I have pelts drying in there.  A clean garage is a neglected garage.

When you’re sad that you can’t sit outside in -15 w/ windchill and it has nothing to do with the weather.

A clean garage is a sign  of a sick mind!! Think OCD.

When I spend all day on ice shanty because I work to much to actually make it out more than once every other week or less.

Still haven't got my hunting gear put away so now I'm just adding ice gear to the collection.  But I know exactly where everything is.
