Always thinking of ice up here on da bay!  I like the ice in drinks too. Are you obsessed when your dropping stuff in your drink, and jigging for it between the cubes with a string and paper clip.

I just had the shanty out today to put new runners on the bottom of the sled, that got me missing the ice real bad.

I too am ready for the ice, at least in the winter I don't have to worry about the waves or dirty water screwing up my fishing.

We fish with vexilars and our ice poles from a boat most of the year. Its good practice for first ice.

Daughter
My daughter is already asking when do I think there will be safe ice to get on. She and I spent some really quality time out on saginaw bay and a few of the local lakes. She has saved up enough money from cutting yards and doing odd jobs to buy herself a vex and a shanty. She is a fishing fool and loves to catch eye's on the bay. She is 13 and all she wants to do is fish.

Glad to see some action here! Good to hear from y'all.
I was up to the Rifle River State Campround this past week(I HATE staying in a campground!!!!!!). Anyways....dont know if any of ya have been there but it is nice and there are several very clean, no motor lakes that just got me chomping at the bit for some good ice!!!
If any one is interested I think I will be heading up that way for some good hardwater action this winter. I think the ice fishing will be awsome. My kids got into some nice beer bottle size perch.....the ol' man started bobber fishing with them and never got a bite  , at least they had fun.
I say let's get a group together and plan a trip?

The other day I went and sat in my shanty. A couple of the decoys hanging in there started talking to me. "put me in the water, I want to go for a swim" They just kept repeating it until they were actualy singing it over and over. I had to get out of there and go hide in the house.
