Snaggletooth Posted January 16, 2011 Share #2 Posted January 16, 2011 I feel your pain, I really do. My hand got cold digging in the fridge looking for my box of Mrs. Pauls Fishsticks. Never again! Next time I'm putting on an oven mitt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagleeye Posted January 17, 2011 Share #13 Posted January 17, 2011 That's cold and I'd be using my shack, but I can't believe you only have 6" of ice. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted January 17, 2011 Share #14 Posted January 17, 2011 That's cold and I'd be using my shack, but I can't believe you only have 6" of ice. Steve Well Steve, ya know he is from the other side of the border so maybe it got lost in the translation and he meant 6 meters of ice.:stickpoke: That would make a better fish story. PS I heard that some of the cold is headed this way, You just keep it up there to make ice for the IRT. We have plenty of ice here already.

fixit3546 Posted January 17, 2011 Share #18 Posted January 17, 2011 I always wanted to try ice fishing...good thing I live in the south! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saddlebum Posted January 19, 2011 Share #19 Posted January 19, 2011 I tried Ice fishing myself once . no matter what I used for bait I could not catch any ice. I even tried baitng my hook with little ice cubes but that did not work either. Later I was told ice fishing is just a waste of time anyhow . . . because when you through the ice in a fry pan it just melts , so it makes for a lousy shore lunch .
