Title: Just me or has traffic on this site slowed down
Post by: jighead on February 15, 2013, 10:41:02 PM
I hate when you have time to go out for a day, but you don't have any safe ice.  I think it has slowed down the posts on this site.  What has everybody been doing to pass the time until we can fish open water again?

I agree, traffic is slow at no safe ice.  I've been getting my bass boat ready, just picked it up from Vic's tonight. Got some work done and added a second power pole.  ;D

I think a lot of us are doing the same.  Getting ready for Spring.  I haven't stopped buying ice fishing gear though.  I guess I'm looking forward to a better season next year.

Sure seems to be a lack of reports on here? Im not sure because im new hear this season. I know people are out all over hear and there ice fishing right now. Thought i would see more action on here today. The ice is crap. The ice i have been on,...i dont want any more people on with me either.  I fished Tinkers today for 2 hrs. Ice was 3" hard clear but now has 5" of snow on it. Just in time for tonight. Hope it firms up. Fishing sucked for us. 3 bites.  checked another lake near and could not get on. Edge was way to soft. Im off tomorrow and want to fish. If anyone wants to car pool n fish,  Live in parma hts area. Not sure where? Goof luck. Be safe

For the first time in a while my hardwater tank is still full. I am going to fish docks with new gear till my tank is empty- going out on Friday morning. Heck with these low temps might even be on ice..crazy huh :)

Title: Website coming off busiest season so far
Post by: Banker on February 19, 2013, 08:29:58 PM
Despite popular opinion, we have seen more reports on IceFishOhio.com this year than any year prior. We are growing leaps and bounds thanks to fisherman like you. Two years ago this site would be a ghost town come last ice ..great to see the momentum continue into the softwater season...keep it up!
