Nice report.  When are you taking your sled out around here?

I'd love to take a long weekend road trip up north jist tough getting away.

I'm back and hoping for a long and successful season!

Watched the video and it looks pretty good.  How much did you pick it up at the show for?  They have it on their site for 15.00 which doesn't seem bad.  Didn't check on shipping though.

Thanks Andy

How was the fishing?  Anything more productive than others?

Welcome MzQuackpot!

I personally have been on and off IFO the past several years.  One part of it was the lack of good ice.  The other part of it was kind of feeling like certain folks just wanted to show off catches and not share info on what they were catching on, how deep of water and conditions.  Showing off catches is a big part of what we do as fishermen but also sharing techniques and little things will help.  The Facebook crowd doesn't have that close knit feeling we have here sometimes.  Sure there is info out there and some sharing but it's not the same.  I've met a few great great guys from here and know there are many more that I haven't met but seem to be good all around people.

Good luck the rest of the season!

Thanks for the report Andy.  Not sure it will happen but I'm hoping it does.  I may take a few personal days if it locks up enough during the week to get out.
