After fishing open water for over 30 years, I finally decided to learn how to ice fish in early 2007.  I had a great teacher and did pretty well.  I live in CT and fish all over the northeast.  I am looking forward to learning some tips and techniques from all the experts here. 

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to IceShanty.  I don't know if there are any experts here(well maybe Mr. Seaguar), but there is plenty of knowledge on here should you need a question answered.

I dont know if I am an expert or not, but I do know I catch a heck of a lot more fish than some people who buy a lot of fancy crap. AND brag about about it in chatrooms. But I dont have my picture plastered all over the internet, like a piscatorial Cindy Margolis.
Every plastics manufacturer claims plastics outfish livebait. So now I use livebait just for the increased challenge.

Welcome to the site.  I don't post alot but read alot and there is alot of good stuff here. ::) :o :o

Pork Rind,....I see you are from Ohio.   I was just wondering if this might be true or not.  I heard that Ohio has no natural lakes.  It said they are all man made.  I can't hardly believe that since we have our share here in Indiana and we are neighbors.
Fisherman's Prayer
   I pray that I may live to fish
          Until my dying day.
And when it comes to my last cast,
       I then most humbly pray:
When in the Lord's great landing net
           And peacefully asleep,
      That in His mercy I be Judged
              BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.

The great thing about being here is: If there is no ice we can still talk about it:   :tipup:  FLAG
Shut up and fish.
