You know it's getting to be ice time...

Just wanted to give all those interested a heads up: Cabela's has started displaying their ice fishing equipment. Not the full lineup yet (some rods, some line, some jigs, etc.). I was down there after work doing a little pre-XMAS scouting; actually, I was looking to see if they had any of those amazingly fast hand augers out(NO).

I thought you people were jumping the gun a bit, but I guess not...

Yeah, moved from Grand Forks, N.D., to Superior, Wis., a little over a year ago. Only thing I miss is the East Grand Forks Cabela's bargain cave. Several of us were in there so often we practically had reserved seats.

Can't stand it when Target drags its Christmas dump out in September. Sure is different when the ice fishing stuff comes out early. Dunno why.

I've noticed that some other baitshops and fishing stores are starting to put out ice fishing stuff as well. St. Paul ice fishing show is normally the first week in December, I plan on attending again this year to pick up some new toys. Hopefully I'll already have a good two weeks of ice fishing in before the show (wishful thinking).

Good Fishin, Matt.
