You are not alone.  The neighbors kinda gave me a funny look when I fired up my ice auger in August.

I have had the shack out once to look it over.  I wasn't going to fire up the auger, but decided that gas was at its cheapest and so I mixed it up and fired it up.  Got the blade sharpened and put on.  It may be a good time to do a dry run now too.  I want to get a few more things done around the house first. I still need to get line for the poles too.  And of course more jigs.

I had the shack up in the basement,  the neighbors think I'm nuts anyway so that may have made them call the cops   Bout another month.

I'm ready, just need ice and bait.  Shack has assumed the primary easy access position in the garage next to the snowblower.

Got new P line for the light line rod. I need to get some for the one that is a little heavier.  Scheels didn't have the right test line that I needed. I did pick up about a dozen Shrimpos there. Getting a little more prepared.
