Thought this was kind of cool.  34,000 holes at Gull Lake fishing contest in Minnesota.  Story is on The Blaze.

At Holter, it's just a matter of time before you would.   ;)
YOU are the only one who can decide if the ice is safe enough for you.

That's like trying to swim thru a gill net for the fish!

Saw the video on YouTube!  With all that congestion of people, I wonder how many lines got tangled when (if) a fish was caught!!!
When there is ice on the lakes, I never make employee of the month!

Are all the holes “pre-drilled” for the contest by the organizers?
They look to be in such an orderly pattern.
Hard to believe that a bunch of fishermen just going out to drown a night crawler could line up and space the holes that neatly.
Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, but not in your favorite fishin’ hole…

50 guys running StrikeMaster augers...took them about 3 hours to drill all those holes...pretty amazing!
If I\'m not fishing, I\'m probably thinking about fishing...And if I\'m thinking about fishing, I\'m probably not getting much else done so, I might as well go fishing...Yeah, I just said that!
