:)Let me confirm with "The Boss" but I should be able to do it. Keep me informed on the ice conditions so I don't waste a trip. I can't believe we might get to ice fish together again, FINALLY!

Maybe one of you smart fellars can tell me what's going on here. Why would a hole open up in the pond last night? I didn't drill any holes close to that spot yesterday. Looks like it opened up and a bunch of water poured onto the ice. Kinda creepy.

Looks like it opened up and a bunch of water poured onto the ice. Kinda creepy. I'm not sure what causes that but I've fished through holes like that many times in my life. Usually when I do fish those holes it seems there is a lot of air bubbles that come to the surface which would imply an underwater spring

Chase actually has a day off, so we're gonna go drill some holes! I knew before I asked where he wanted to go ; " Bill's." I'd rather try our newest honey hole, or maybe go try to catch some of them monster redear. Guess we'll figure it out when he gets here.

You guys and your ice fishing plans are making me quite jealous.
I suspect West Island will be fishable this weekend, but I know it has springs in it, so I'm not sure how safe the ice would be.

Man, that would be SWEET to ice fish West Island. Those springs are scary though, I know there's pits at G-S that never freeze over because of them.

All my friends have gotten rid of theirs since they bought high end ice suits. I guess we will just have to tough it out

Looks like the end is near. There's about a foot of ice at Shakamak's lakes, but the edges will go fast. They already went once this season about a month ago. Better get 'em while we can...
