Well its that wonderful, happy, awesome, thrilling, addicting, much anticipated time of the year, can ya tell I live to ice fish,lol. So I thought I would throw out a few ideas as an equipment check list ' 1. Check auger blades for wear or cracks, and check tightness of set screws in auger blades, loose blades cut lousy and break. 2. Re spool all rods with new line. 3. Verify that there is a safety throw rope in your box/shanty. 4. Get propane bottles, and check lanterns are functioning properly. 5. Inventory all your jigs and tackle and replace as needed. 6. Inventory coveralls, I always check to see if my arse still fits in em,lol. 7. Charge Vexlars or whatever electronics you may have, take them to a lake or pond and drop em in off a pier to see that they are working properly, replace batteries as needed, stinks trying to get a new battery in the heat of the season been there done that took two weeks to get another factory vexlar battery.. That should just about cover it, get out there and enjoy it ice fishing is truly a great way to rid those dog days of winter. I am unaware of what yall typically have for safe ice in the south, but if any of ya want to take a drive I would be more than happy to take ya fishing.
