Yep, that cool weather last weekend kicked my ice fishing urges into gear.

I decided that I needed to put a front rack basket on my ATV. I did not care for any of the factory or aftermarket units, so I made my own out of 1 1/2 inch PVC pipe.It will hold three five gallon size buckets.

Now I have to make some kind of rack on the back that will hold my Otter tub....

I've had that itch since ice-out this spring. I only got out once in March....the pain, oh the pain....

Well I have the itch, I started insulating the floor of my Ultra Shack on Monday,..after that is done I am going to install some small, very queit 12V fans to help circulate the air.

Oh boy I am itching, but deer hunting has to come first and I really have the itch for that too!

I need a new signature icon with an ice fishing picture soon...any one have any ideas where I can find one?

I am itchin here in Montana too, but the elk are starting to bugle in the high country so that will help scratch it for awhile.
We have had some very cool weather for the last week or two and the lakes are starting to cool down slightly. You know what that means, ITS MAKIN ICE!!

Guys, a little secret if you haven't seen it already.

Get in on the I.C.E.Series this year. It's a very good time.

Also, it's on special until September 1st (averages out to only $15 per event for each person) Instead of $200 for all 4 events for a team you can get by with only $120 per team for all 4 events.

Go to:
http://IceLeaders.com and check out the info there.

Hope to see a lot of you hard cores out there having a blast with us.

Don't wait, sign up now and save a bundle.

Luckily, bow season is just around the corner, and that'll scratch my itch until hard-water days. Of course, every time I go by the Fish Trap II, Vex and Strikemaster when I'm down the basement, I've gotta pause for a bit and lollygag about the good times last season . . .

It's september and in the 80's. Looks like a long time before ice. Good thing hunting season is around the corner, or I might go crazy.

Cant wait for ice on, it will be great! I get to use my spanking new Fl-18 and catch some fish through a 10" hole!
Went past my ice fising stuff and felt urge as I walked past it.
Dosent mean fall isnt the best time of the year to fish because ice fishing is just as good.
Just hope for ice on early and a reasonal amount of snow all winter long.

You will like that FL-18. It is something else. The suppresser works great also in case someone is fairly close. And I am with you on that 10" auger. Got me a Jiffy Legend and it is a beauty. I had so much trouble with my Strikemaster that I replaced it last winter. See you on the ice.
