Just heard on the new this morning that the next 3 days are going to bring our first official "Heat Wave". So much for the lakes getting colder last week.

Cant wait myself!!!!!

Default not the only one

Ok well its good to know that im not the only one thinking about ice fishing... Heres the deal. I just opened a store on Morrison Lake (saranac) and I am planing on having Shanty rental. Kinda like being guided, transported, and fed. Please share any ideas that you might have, my target is for people who dont have the equipment or capability to go Ice fishing... or who ever... Thanks.. if you dont know where I am you can check out my web. www.lakesidestoremorrisonlake.webs.com
Thanks all...

Hey FishDog....Checked out your site....looks like a nice little lake. You'll have to give us an ice report once a while this season

Good luck with the shanty rentals. Are you going to be putting out perminant shanty's for the year or will they be portable?

Good luck with your new business!!!!!!!

Thanks! order made!! cant wait to try them out. I like to use ice jigs on my kids pole to, they always seem to tangle up with a hook and split shot. this works very well to cure that!
