Big Dave2 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 and dose the ice look good for a suburban and a 8x20 castle? I don't know anything about the meth hole area but I was on long lake last Saturday and there was about 12" of ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daryn Hardwick Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Got room for an avid fisherman, but one who has never ice fished before? Was thinking about starting to this winter and this seems like a good opportunity! And it looks like you guys have fun!What would you like me to bring to pass?

It's called subliminal marketing. Made me want to go out and buy one and I already own one exactly like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTro Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I sure can't guarantee an awesome bite for Sat, but I can report that the last 2 trips up to the chain we iced over 100 fish. It has been a lot of fun! Here's a shot from last night of fish stacked from 22 to 40ft. The pre cold front bite was insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick G Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Looks like it's going to live up to the name cool cats The weather man said -9 for a morning low, and +10 for the afternoon high. The only way I will reconsider coming is if it's -15 and windy, otherwise it's game on. I got one of the nice ladys from work to help me whip up 6-7 lb of maple smoked pork and beans.

harvey lee Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Borch, I will bring my larger fillet board, the one that is the size of a pick up tail gate.Great video Darren, one of the best I have seen for a tutorial.Yes, the chicken livers do taste great right out of the deep fat fryer.

Borch Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 I will toss in a cooler as well for keeping any cats we plan on eating fresh so they don't freeze solid. Much tougher to clean when they are frozen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of time for the forecast to change. I just check and now it's looking like 15 for a high and light winds out of the south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
