The not sleeping too well the night before because of the excitement and anticipation....kind of like when you were a little kid the night before Christmas waiting for Santa Claus.  :icefish:

It's tough to pick one thing, I agree with all of you but I'll have to say drinking hot coffee while watching the sun rise over the ice. Unbelievable!

The first good flag of the day. The one where when you get there it's just kinda slow rollin'.......

My most recent birthday was the last one I won't be 60; I see that and may as well wet my finger and stick it in a wall outlet. I get the same charge....  :tipup:

Yes, there is craziness involved.

To fish or not to fish? That's a stupid question!

My boys are 12 and 15, having them with me on the ice- fishing, eating, shooting the crap, some of the best days of my life. I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Watching the mark on my flasher moving up toward my jig, and knowing I'm gonna get bit.

Being outdoors, doing what I love to do has always been my only reason. This being my 3rd year using a flasher, I too can't wait to see that blip on the screen, never really knowing what it could be.

This season I will start a new phase of my ice fishing life that I'm sure will become my favorite. My boys are now old enough that my wife feels comfortable with them being out on the ice. This season I will become a teacher, can't wait to see their faces when their first fish comes through that hole.

Sitting around a fire on a cold cloudy day with a cold glass of wine and turning around to see a flag standing straight up.
This is a pretty good one.  :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:
