Title: Back on the bucket- New Member
Post by: Suttalo on January 26, 2014, 07:42:06 AM

Good Morning All
Here is the lowdown on myself:
I'm born and raised in Champaign County.43 yrs old, married with two grown kids(out on thier own). I'm a bow hunting junkie. I teach Hunter Ed for the State.
I have not done much fishing of any kind in the past 5 years since I lost my older and only brother. He was my fishing partner and introduced me to ice fishing many years ago. I just received all of his ice gear and decided to get back on the bucket. My wife and I spend a lot of time teachin the outdoors to our nephew and hope to gear him up on the ice with his daddy's stuff :)
I love the site and have been checking it daily. Friends and neighbors with Tinguppy.
Hope to hit Kiser this am for a short trip.
This is my official first social media haha!
Hope this was not TMA

Welcome Suttalo. Was you coming back from the lake when I was plowing my drive? And if so did you do any good.

No, I just drove up by it. I went to check on a pond. But Ice was not safe so I fished off the dock. I didn't have much time as I thought today.
Maybe after work tomorrow.
Got some picks just need a spud now. Hitting Bass Pro after my shift Monday :)

Welcome to the FAM. Bow hunting junkie my self.   I understand how it is to lose a fishing partner. My brother was my open water right hand man. I didnt lose him totaly but bad things grabbed a hold of him. He hasn't been able to fish for a few years so all I have fished was on ice the last 4 years or so. I'm 32 and man is it hard to look at my boat and try to go fishing with out him. Getting my nephews and daughter out on the ice has been my saving grace.  Best thing I can say is get out there catch a bucket full and that my friend is what he would've wanted. Too see that big smile on your face. Thanks for the insight and bobber down.
