Last March nearing the end of the season I still had 2+ weeks before the deadline to get shacks off the lake. They were calling for a snow storm 12" The night the storm started I decided to go pull my shack off. As it turns out I made a very good decision. The snow was wet heavy drifts almost 2 feet and slush under the snow 8" thick. Then the warm up was so fast I may have had a new fish crib out there.

No disrespect to anyone here, because I've never had a bone to pick in this venue. But if this were open water I'd be looking for an IL sticker on the boat........... ;)

I was on the ice in that area over the weekend (Muskellunge north of ER), had 5+ Saturday going down to barely a good 4" by Sunday. Saw a 6 wheeler on that but at least they float.

Really, let's be careful out there.........

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

Will Rogers said it best.  "Some folks learn by listening. Some learn by watching. Some just have to P on the electric fence and figure it out for themselves." Glad no one was hurt.

Such a waste of a good shack...
Be who you are and don't listen to others that say you shouldn't. That's how life should be lived as.

I bet his old lady was PISSED

Changed my middle name to "You should have been here yesterday".         Remember it's called fishing, not catching.

Went to the spear house this afternoon and low and behold if there wasn't a car parked out there on 6" of ice.
