Well, I spend a lot of my time between classes while on campus at UW-Madison at the Memorial Union, it’s where I go because I love the view of Monona while I study. It comforts me when I am near the ice and makes me feel at home. Long story short I walk into the Union grab a table next to the windows, I take a glance at the bay and lo and behold an ice fisherman. Now I don’t know much about the ice fishing scene in Madison, but I can say I have never seen a sole out in front of the Union before so I’m assuming this guy is just out there to relax and waste some time. I look closer and the bonehead has out 3 tip-ups and has a line out for jigging to boot. Now I know I’m in college so I can show off my great math abilities here: 1+3= 4 (if you guys need an explanation for how I completed that complex math just send me a pm I’ll be free all week LOL)! And last time I checked and every time I’ve went through the DNR regs. book is has said three lines are permitted. So either this guy is blatantly violating or he doesn’t know the rules either way he is not really smart, very tempted to report him. Anyway there is my rant, just frustrates me that people are A.) too lazy to look up the regs. or B.) too ignorant to abide the law.

And Charlie you aren’t missing much in the way of hot fishing back home either, over break I really struggled to find and entice the fish to bite all over Oneida and Vilas counties. I’ve been hearing of tough fishing all over besides when I watch IDO and they are smashing them week in and week out!
