Winter Predictions
« on: Sep 08, 2007, 10:46 PM »
Was wondering what kind of winter all you think Indiana will have this year.  Can't wait for that ice.  I'm thinking and hoping we will have a hard winter, since the summer has been as it has.  Some people probably think I'm crazy by saying that and maybe I am, but I want some nice ice!!  So what kind of winter do you all think we'll have?

I think there will be another long winter.  However, this new work schedule of mine, "professional hours," is going to minimize my ice fishing time, no more going every morning before work, that was one of the greatest things about second shift hours.  I am now a resident of Chicago, but I am sure I will make a few trips back east to NE Indiana.  I am a virgin Illinois fisherman, so now I must seek out new ice fishing holes.  My wedding photographer was a die hard ice fisherman so he told me to definately get with him this winter, so hopefully he can show me some new places here in IL and up into Wisconsin.  Another prediction for the winter is that Iceshanty will beat indianainfo, it was a fluke last year considering half those people over there don't know how to fish to begin with.  Hopefully I will be able to make it for the tourny this year.
Real fisherman don't yield to the weather.

i certainly hope we get a good winter. Another couple of months of driving quads on the ice would be sweet. I am getting my guide out this weekend to  make sure everything is in order.I am heading Dec. 15 +16 up to Alexandria to fish in the North American Ice Fishing Championships so i won't be long before i get to wet a line. 8 weeks baby.
There is only one theory about angling in which I have perfect confidence, and this is that the two words, least appropriate to any statement, about it, are the words "always" and "never."

It sure will be nice to get out on that first ice again. I think we will have some safe ice the first part of Dec. here in northwest Indiana. But untill then Im going to try and harvest a couple of whitetails.
