I keep buying ice gear, spent another $40 yesterday.... I sure hope I can use this stuff soon. Need to do some fishing instead of buying new gear

LOL me too. Another trip to Lansing this morning and more money spent on gear. Still keeping my ear to the ground for news from the north.

Plenty of safe ice in the UP. Come on up and you too can be walking on water.

Haha...thats the way I was for most of December! My girlfriend finally took away my credit card. She likes to icefish too and finally cracked under the pressure. She went "BIG" tho and booked us for 3 days/4 nights on Lake of the Woods, Minnesota the first week of March!!!

NICE!!!!   :clap:

It's a fine line between fishing & sitting on the ice like an idiot

Tell me about it.  My son got me some nice stuff for Christmas and I can not even use it.  Got me a nice new tip up.  Still sitting here in the living room!  Heading to Tawas this weekend, just to get away.  Hopefully there is some ice by then.

I hear ya. I can't even go to Meijer without buying something for the ice. I just went in tonight and bought a couple new lures.

I know what you guys are talkin about, I just got back from Jays in Gaylord. Cost me 51 bucks to get out the door with one small bag of lure. Lol.  Only thing is I heard my wifes total from another register and heres was $114.00.  Damn Woolrich clearance sales. LoL
