Title: What to do ?
Post by: ice hole 2 on January 14, 2021, 05:08:53 AM

Problem ! The conditions look good for safe ice in the next few weeks. I would really enjoy being on the hard water past Feb. 6 th.  But, our 56 th wedding anniversary is that date. Fishing is not her thing. What  should I do to insure a 57 th anniversary ? Help !!

Take her out to dinner and buy jewelry.  Make sure the jewelry can be made into lures just in case things don't work out!  Congrats on your 56 years.

First off, Congrats!  That’s a major accomplishment!   Take it from someone who was “working” on the ice when I got the call it was time to go to the hospital for the birth of our son, there will still be ice the next day.   I kept that quiet for 3 years, but she still wasn’t amused.   Rolled her eyes and shook her head.    ;D
But all kidding aside, enjoy the special day, then be on the ice half hour before sunrise the next morning.

That's what I enjoy about this site. All useful information. Thanks, toadfish - your suggestion made me smile!  Fishing is not her thing and jewelry isn't either.
So, I've decided with a good ice report about Jan. 28, I'll fish until Feb. 5 , return home to spend the day with my wife then return to Indian the next day. It's only a 2 hour trip from Cincinnati anyway ! A win - win situation.  ;D ;D ;D

You're screwed. Forget the ice fishing. Wife comes first. Fishing is second.
