I am curious to find out all the different ways of how you found the greatest ice fishing forum on the internet. If you were doing a internet search or you met a member that told you about IFO or from a bait shop or any other way. If you were introduced by a member let us know who it was and where or a bait shop which one were you at. I found this website just a couple of months after it was launched when I googled "ice fishing forums''. I was a member of ice shanty but there was not a lot of guys or info from ohio on there and was on OGF and but was looking for something that I liked better. I have really enjoyed IFO since I got here and spend over half of my internet time on this site alone. This site helps so many ice fisherman and has by far the best group of any people around that are willing to help you out in any way. This site is almost as important to my ice fishing success as my marcum. I have grown so much as an ice fisherman from all of you sharing all of your info on what works and doesnt and all the different tactics that are used. That is why all the details you put in your reports are so important. Its not just that people are trying to find places to fish. Its also people learning different tactics to fishing and meeting guys from all parts of the state so no matter where you go you always have a friend on the ice which makes this dangerous sport that much safer.

A few years back I was really getting back into the sport of Ice Fishing again. I wasn't having much luck when dropping a line. I did a google search and found this site.  Incidentally My bad luck was how I came up with my screen name.
