Title: Get together on the ice!!
Post by: Steuben1 on Jan 20, 2010, 07:48 AM
Ok gents, the guys from Fort Wayne made it happen with their meet and dinner.  I propose a meet on the ice and we actually cook lunch on the ICE!!  I have a turkey deep fryer that we could deep fry some fish.  Fish all day, have lunch on the ice, what could be better!

I think we should have it up north somewhere.

Jigmup,  Open to EVERYONE.  Since you have so much experience, I nominate you to help put it together.

Do I have a second?  (someone in crowd seconds)

There you have it!

Besides, with all the marbles you catch Jigmup, you could feed us all!

Ha...I've been struggling lately. Call the "filthy funk slump". You wouldn't want me to organize a get together 'cause it might spread like the flu.

It was a 24 hour or so thing for me but hit me like a truck. wife says it was caused by fishing too much. Is that possible?  ;) But depending where its held I'd try to get there.

I think Silver was brought up at Ziffle's.  That'd be another good option.

How about pretty, or appleman, or chain o lakes?
Title: Re: Get together on the ice!!
Post by: taggedfish on Jan 26, 2010, 07:06 AM
does anyone know how the ice is at the chain? that would be a shorter trip for our warsaw guys.
Title: Re: Get together on the ice!!
Post by: Greg2ha on Jan 26, 2010, 08:25 AM
I think Chain O Lakes would be a great spot! If you are talking about the one in noble Co. It has so many lakes to fish people can jump around. That's just my opinion. But if
you go up around Angola there are lots of lake options there as well.

I think Crooked Lake in Steuben would be a great place!  Plenty of parking and has nice marbles!

 Does Crooked Lake still have smelt?? Never caught one before, just wondering. I have never fished there but my Dad does quite a bit. I know there's some huge pike in there. Would be nice to have it somewhere where there's walleyes so someone can teach me how to catch them. I catch more muskies than walleyes, just have a thing with them I guess...

How long is the drive up there? Never fished Saginaw

Group of guys and myself are heading to Put in Bay to ice fish Feb. 26,27,and 28th with John Hageman over there. Just hope they have ice then.

Saginaw Bay is a 2.5 hour drive from the state line.  I would much rather go to Saginaw Bay than Erie.

#1. I doubt the ice will be good enough for Erie this year.
#2. The Eye's are bigger on Saginaw.
#3.  No icebreakers go through Saginaw Bay!
#4. Saginaw Bay is safer.

All these reasons are IMHO only.
