The jigs are $1.25 a card, they are usually $2.49. Gas just jumped to $2.95 per gallon here. Perhaps a moped road trip would be more economical.  ;D

I'm afraid that would be a bit of a road trip for me.  I'll just have to be glad for my fellow IC's
finding a good bargin.  You'll just have to wait a bit to try out the new gear!

I seem to have accumulated a bit myself that will have to wait until next January until I can give it a
try.... Oh, well.  That gives me so much more time to read all the good stuff on ICs in the mean time!

But we got Mardens up here  lol

CNY ICE REPORT

Had great ice today!  Caught half a dozen bottle bass.  I checked the guide and am pretty sure they were all legal (12 ounce minimum).  The nice thing about them is you get a nickle a pelt for them after you gut them.   :thumbsup:  I wonder if we can talk  the course owner into letting us borrow one of his carts to get onto the ice next winter. ;D  It's going to be a long summer.
Fish may be stupid but I've never seen a perch sitting in a boat with a second degree sun burn trying to catch a man.

How come in the summer we've got frost and in the winter its global warming.   Hope this winter is  better than last.  Got a new FL-18 later in the winter and got to use it once.  Oh well maybe I'll put it on the boat.  I just got some of the ice runners for the bottom of my Quick Flip II so maybe I'll work on them today.        Steve

Here's what happen's when you get new toy's to use and there's no ice. I got to try out the vex, otter, jiggin rod, rod holder, and a IS hat. My wife thought that I was loosing it when she came to the basement to take the pic. I think with  a little time and a deep freeze I could make enough ice for a little IS get together :o
