ahh the good old days,we had cup style augers,took forever to bore a hole,our outerwear was a pair surplus navy wool bibs,or our woolrich red and black plaid deer hunting outfits,you were lucky if you had a pair of mouse boots,and grateful,our depthfinders were a alligator clip with a hunk of lead,our gps was dead reckoning and land marks.fishing rod reels were 2 pcs. of wire you wrapped the line around,and when it came back off,it looked like a acordian,no fluorcarbon line,whatever we could get,line dia. was larger also,ice houses were heavy and hard to drag,cleats were all but nonexistent,we did'nt know any other way,but we liked it,thats why we did it,and i still like it,thats why i do it,just a trip down memory lane for the older guys,ahhhh do you remember these,shirley johnson,goldie thompson,lord they hurt me bad,oh yeah heaters were a coleman lantern or a single burner stove with a tin can wired on it.it makes me appreciate the equipment we have today.
