We are losing our ice!
With the recent warm weather some of the lakes around here are opening up again! I havn't even begun to icefish seriously yet! I sure hope it cools down soon. Is anyone else considering pulling out the canoe?

ya it realy stinks, I just got a whole bunch of new electronics for Ice fishing and it does'nt look like I'm hardly even going to get to use them. It looks like It's supossed to get cold this week though, hopefully It will stay that way for more than a week this time.

RE: We are losing our ice!
its getting colder here...I guess I could blow really really hard and shoot some of this system over to ya Osprey LOL...usually when I call home its just the opposite, warm there and cold here or visa versa. I just want more snow so I can get out on my sled and not tear it up. Hey you could take your boat out and anchor using your electronics <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>. Well it was a humoring thought anyways.....dont have to much fun..
