Hey everybody. I am back for another season. Had my maiden voyage yesterday in central MA. found a minimum of 7.5" of ice that ranged up to 10" in my early ice spot. Took the chance to make sure the drill and the flasher were working properly and made a list of set up things that need to get done to maximize the season. Planning a night jigging trip for this week as well. It has begun! Looking forward to fishing with those of you on here who I usually see.
