New guy onboard

November 26, 2011, 08:28:08 PM
Just joined the site today. I belong to IceShanty and was looking for something more pertaining to Ohio. I live in Englewood and fish both soft and hard water. I put 21 years in the Navy so that explains my user name.
I grew up in Minnesota doing a lot of fishing ( if you don't, they ask you to leave!). I like ice fishing, but we seem to have a problem making it here in SW Ohio
I like fishing saugeye at Indian Lake and just started ice fishing it last year. I don't have a shelter, nor a power auger, just my 8" Mora. I should have gotten a 6" because I have arthritis bad in both my shoulders!!Actually I need a power auger, bur can't afford one at present. Times are tough with the holidays approaching! Anyone wants to meet up at I.L. (or elsewhere) just let me know. I didn't hide my email or on here!!
My two favorite college football teams are Ohio State and whoever is playing Michigan!!!

Optfish (Rick) Sounds good man !! My email:
[email protected]
If you don't have email, we can stay in touch on here!! By the way, I'm Mike.
Salmonid (Mark) That's what I'm talkin' about!! Private ponds are fantastic and I'm OK with whatever rules you have, i.e. size or release.Sounds like a chance to meet some ice heads. I'd like to try Kiser, and I also fish Indian Lake. Never tried C.J. even softwater. (no boat). Like I told Rick, email me and we can stay in touch and I can give you my phone number also.
Anyone else out there in my area

No problem pete12. If you're from the Columbus area do you fish Buckeye Lake, or do you fish elsewhere
