Found ice rod (just south of isle Lamotte bridge)
« on: Feb 15, 2016, 05:24 PM »
It's a long shot but figured I'd try. My son found an ice rod on the way off the lake today. If anyone on here lost it shoot me a pm.

I just hope someone would do the same if they found mine. We went to the gut earlier in the season and found an auger. Was going to grab it and do the same. Instead I turned it a few times into the ice hoping whoever lost it would come back and see it sticking up.

Hardwater .. I'll have to check my rod bags to make sure we have them all.  We were there on Sunday.  You didn't leave a hand auger frozen into the ice out there, did you?  We tried to get it out, but no luck.

I want to thank the guys that handed me my flasher that fell out of my sled hauling everything back in this afternoon during that rain.
It wasn't secured like I normally do since I was bringing in a haul of perch and it bounced out right at shore.
Again, thanks!

Perchbait and I checked our rod bag last night and they are all accounted for.  Hopefully you can find the owner.

I also hope a snowmobile or 4-wheeler doesn't hit that frozen auger!  That could do some damage.
