Sure is,  truck is loaded with ice gear, and our fridge with spikes and waxies.  The latter much to my wife's dismay!!

I was duck hunting yesterday and was thinking about ice fishing. Couple of weeks ago was ice fishing thinking about duck hunting. Uggggg took the decoys out and ice gear in then ice gear out and decoys in. Wish the weather would make up its mind lol

Thermos containers sound like a good idea.  All I can say is don't leave the crawlers in the red coffee container in the fridge, nothing worse than my better half getting still practically sleep walking opening it up to take a scoop out.  Had a friend out on OSP today, said it was okay but was afraid to move around at all.
