We cleaned up   :o    I got a clam Nanook,  each of the Boys got a Frabill Recon,  We all got nice mitts like Bill's. 3 kinds of  berkley maggots,   lots of  Williams wablers,  I got the Marcum SHOWDOWN early... (last week)  and a real surprize... a  Marcum LX-I  from an awesome friend.  You are too kind.  We got lots of smelly Jelly, a new Finnbore III hand auger to put on the ICE GATOR,  flashlights,  We all got out own colapsable shovels for our flip shelters, as well as our own ice hole scoops,   new trappers hats,  micro jigs,   Everyone got a spanky new tape measure with big numbers on it,   and various other lures/ hooks, that I dont need to mention.    We are spoiled.   ;)

No haven't seen it but I haven't been in there for a while. Sounds alright for the price though.

Nothing for ice fishing really but I got a Fly Tying kit and some mepp lures. Can finally start learning to make my own flies... should have kept some deer hair from my buck  :-\
There's always a bigger fish... and I'm going to get it!

it all depends on the type of flies you are tying, my advice is start with a very simple pattern, and then once you master that you can slowly start tying harder patterns, I have been tying for atleast six years now and sell m any of mine. Although i specialize in salmon and steelhead patterns

Ya should've kept the deer hair. My first pattern was a tom thumb. It's just deer hair and it works.
