    Hey guys. Nice site going on here. Ice fishing creeps into my thoughts daily so I am happy to have found it. Looking forward to some summer ice chat!

    The ice chat can get a little slow in the summer with a few threads opened here and there. But if you bring your thoughts to the table they will come. Welcome!

    It will pick back up in July. But this is one of the best forums out there still.

    No Will, your not alone lol – Yesterday I ground the handles off a few junk forks and spoons to make my own jigging spoons and Sweedish Pimple look alikes. I have no idea how I am going to make it to January!

    I just picked up a few products on winter clearance and already looking for the new product releases for the same things I just picked up. It is an addiction.

    It will only get worse, as my GF calls it, icefishing pocks. It’s a disease!!

    I’m already looking forward to next fall.

    Wouldn’t consider myself a real ice fisherman yet, but I’d be lying if I didn’t already miss screens like this….

    Not sure how this thread got resurrected now but it did remind me of last winter. I too have a passion for it but the bonus can be just hanging out with family while you got lines in the water!

    That’s the only problem with my two augers. Ones propane, the others electric. There’s no smell. I used to stick my head in the coat closet in the foyer. You could smell the two stroke smoke in my ice fishing jacket. Not anymore. And weed whip smoke is just not the same
