Hello. I'm an analytical chemist working for an environmental consulting company. I've been coast to caost and half way around the world (Kazahkstan). Even got to catch a fish in Kazahkstan (it was sort like a chub, them folks over there put em on a stick and cooked 'em over a camp fire). When I'm home I convinvce my wife (sometimes) that I need to go fishin instead of visiting her mother. Its going to be harder to do that this year if we don't get ice.

I'm a Registered Nurse and work in the Intensive Care Unit working with the critically ill. I plan on attending graduate school to become an adult nurse practitioner with focus on cardiology, or critical care. Fun to see what others do, and all share the love of ice fishing.

Currently I sub-contract for a general construction contractor to pay the bills. In 2004 I earned a degree in Natural Resource Conservation but, haven't been able to match up the right job. Before that I was a supervisor/ lead tech. for the tel-com division of the Local 86 Electrical Union. I did that for 7 years. Before that I was a technician for a communications contractor and a self employed lineman in the southeast and here in NY. I've been around a little but, its afforded me a lot of experience and knowledge in a few area's. Anyone interested in a fisherman/conservationist that climbs and terminates fiber? Send me a PM!

I was a Union carpenter with local 344, but unfortunatly after 3 back surgeries I am a full time college student again at 35. I graduate in May with Real Estate Brokers Associate Degree and small business degree. Hoping to work in construction equipment/ material sales and break in part time on the real estate.
In between these last semisters I will be a professional ice fisherman if the weather will co-operate!!

I hang and finish drywall for a small wny company not exactly what i want to be doing but the money is good and as "foreman" I say that lightly (we are a 5 man company including the owner), I can occasionally leave early or take a weekday fishing and trade a crowded weekend day working. I hav e not taken a sick day since last ice season so assuming we have ice soon i see a 2 or 3 day "flu" coming.
