No, but I like this thread.  ;D  I wonder what others have thought about or said while sitting in the shanty.... 
I've had many conversations with the fish when they've been uncooperative. And sweet talked them up the hole so they wouldn't get off. And I'm always thinking about how I can fish the honey holes that I've found on the ice and gps'd from my bass boat!   :o  Crappie and bass beware! !

I wish you could have sweet talked those final tournament results onto the panfish series board so people could have viewed the results! ;D

I haven't used my pop up yet. I have used my hunting blind in the rain before.

Honestly, I totally forgot about that. My bad. After I got back from my work in New York, it totally slipped my mind. It'll be done by tomorrow. And next year week be less disjointed, I promise.

I think the tip up idea is great.  A small duck weight anchor to hold it in place with the tip up mounted to a small throw life saver donut.  Good work.  I was thinking about starting a window tinting business for Amish buggies.  For the Amish mafia.

Oh and knitting a belly button lint sweater.   I actually was thinking of studded bicycle tires to pull my shack out on far walks.  Gonna tinker and try next year.   Will post pics if I figure out how.
