Just took delivery of a Noodle rod and waiting for cargo net for the hut. I am slowly getting ready for first ice.

After it gets way to cold to be in a boat chasing  fall/winter steelhead i will be ready to sit in a warm shanty on the ice.

Really nice fish! Thanks for sharing! I think ice out here was late February. I have been excited for first ice since early March!
Keep it safe! JDL

Awesome Rainbows! Hoping to make a few trips to lake Superior this season to see if we can't get some of the big browns to bite!

The anticipation is what gets me...having to wait for that first freeze and THEN wait for consecutive days of below freezing temp to get good safe ice!

Here in the northeast it can take awhile, some years as late as January.....

i still have 2 months of walleye fishing in the river to do.  although it appears the river is going to fight that all the way into december.

Was never ready to give it up but money and work are more important half the year.
