You guys suck!! I live outside of Chicago and only got 2 weeks of fishing. Only saw 4in of ice this year. Better than last year i guess.
Don't wish for Spring to get here, I could take ice fishing all year round!There's still plenty of ice fishing here....just got off the ice a few hours ago and still have18+ inches. Small world! My sister lives in the Joliet area.
Well if it makes you feel any better I had a guy on a set of skis being pulled by a Skidoo rev 800 at about 40mph out on the ice this past weekend. It was a hoot. Yeah, didn't look quite right, all I needed was my fishing boat and rods with a line hanging out waving and I would have fit right it with those yahoo's. LOL!
We have probably 2 weeks left in our season here. I am kinda looking forward to some "soft water" fishin. I know my backside will appreciate it! I especially look forward to the guy trying to fix his trailer while he is at the boat launch holding everyone else up or the guy who takes three parking spots with his vehicle and trailer. Oh, can't forget the water skiers out at 6:00 AM stirring up the fishing grounds and the partiers at noon buzzing ya at 40mph on their jet ski's! Ahhhhh........ can't wait! that's way I mostly night fish don't have to worry about those thing
And the jerk who uncovers and preps his boat on the ramp. I swear I'm going to thumb the next clown who does boat prep on the ramp.
