I'v always wanted to go to some of the seminars at thorne brothers, I would for sure be there, if I did'nt bowl on wednesday nights, bummer, will there be any more later into the season?

Herefish, they typically run until April, every Wednesday night through the ice season. I think the week before the St. Paul Ice Show they usually don't do one because they are setting up for the show and it is a crazy time around there. They are also recorded and posted online for viewing afterward.

For my seminar, I am hoping to hit on quite a few points of the lead-up to first ice. From pre-ice scouting in the boat to treading lightly on the thin stuff. Ways to stay safe and dry, and how I go about locating fish on first ice.

I will also be sharing my through the ice stories, but one in particular that nearly took my life. The reason I share this is because I want to make sure people pay attention to their surroundings and especially children that simply don't know any better. I was eight and my brother was five when we both nearly lost our lives.

See everyone next Wednesday for Tom's seminar!

Enjoy!

I will be up front tonight at 7 going over things to help you catch more fish and stay topside on first ice.

Some of the main topics tonight will be;

1. Identifying your first ice lake options

2. Scouting in the boat while you still have the chance

3. My through the ice story

4. Gear for first ice - both safety and fishing

5. Finding fish on early ice

6. Presentations

Of course things might go off on a tangent if people have questions on specifics, but it should be a pretty good night. I am one of those guys that gets out on 2-3 inches, and have been on less. Been through a few times, but not since I was a kid.

Hope to see some of you there.
