Hi guys! Ive been reading things on this site for about 2yr and finally joined!Im from Carroll Ia. now and lived in the Spirit lake area for about 15yr so most of my fishing has been done in the north west corner but do travel some with the seasons!
Hope every one has a great ice season this year and I hope to meet some of you!

Cal, I'm from Storm Lake originally and have a brother in Spencer, so we fish Stormy, Spirit, and the Okobojis quite often. I have lived in Huxley (south of Ames) for 8 years now and fish a few lakes around here. Let me know if you have a hot lake or pond in the Carroll area.

Happy T-day and bring on the hard water!

IceJohn,

Miami is definately worth checking out. The fish are not huge but they are decent and there are a lot of them. We stopped by a couple of years ago on the way to Rathbun. We were the only ones on the lake. We had all the gills we wanted in about 2 hours.

Hey, I fish central IA, Cities area, and South Dakota. I am really impressed with this site. I hope that this year we can actually find enough ice to have the 2nd annual ice fish thingy!!! I am ready to fish.

Provided we have enough of that one necessary commodity (ICE!) I am sure that fisher101("101"? Is that like the introductory course?) herb, soiled, etc. will pull some kind of Iowa Icer's Re-Onion together....just need to whip up some interest and a lot more ice!

Hey, It's great to see all you guys from the old site. Seems like a gathering of old friends. It's going to make ice in Ia. all week. Just hope we get some thick ice before we get too much snow. Check out some of the links on fishingminnesota. You'll probably see some people you know from another site we used to visit.
Has anyone been out to do any icefishing in Ia. yet?

[Guest]

Herb I was out last Friday. There was 31/2 in on farm pond next door. Caught small Bass & 9in Blue Gills. Realy nice ones. I'am fishing north west Ia. Also I would like to thank Rick for this web site, I think it is great, Hace already got a lot of good info. Thanks again. (C.P.R.) Jackmac

They opened the tubes at Lake Odessa today to lower it for the winter. There goes our ice, what little we had and with the warm temps predicted, it'll be quite a while before I get out unless I head north.
