How many times did you get out there?

[Dennis Steele]

Yup Still married!And a to a wonderfull gal,I might add.
I figure I put just about 45 days on the ice this year.I was out of town fishing every weekend except one,since mid December.I also got out of town on a few weekdays this winter also.Only fished in the "neigboorhood" 3 times this year.

[JIGLFIN]

Gonna make it an even 10 to the big pond, if
the ice holds for another week or so.

Made 1 trip south toward pelican rapids, for
crops and sunnies.

Didn't make it to URL. tho would have liked to. Way the landing reports are sounding, may have to wait 9 months for that.

It's been a tough bit, in general, but a good season.

Good luck and be careful;

[M.T. Bucket]

Just shy of 35 times myself. Never fished outside of Itasca County this winter.

[Paul Waldowski]

I would estimate that I was able to get out about 50 days give or take a couple. Everywhere from Buffalo Bay on LOW south to Rush Lake. Never did get out and fish a metro lake.

Wow, toughest question I've seen on here in awhile! It would be easier to say how many days I did not fish! I hit the ice roughly 80-90 days this winter, it was a good one! I'm ready for soft water however!

So, are you still married?! Just wondering how many times you were able to hit the ice this year. I spose I was out there 45 times.
20 on Red
2 at LOW
10 ish on Bemidji
10 on Larson
5 Misc...
Had fun every time too!

[Animal]

2 trips to Canada for trout
3 trips to LOW
3 trips to Red
1 trip to Vermillion
10 days on local lakes

About 30 days of fishing. But, then add packing days and driving that takes up some more time.

Let me see....

3 trips to Mille Lacs(so far)Hope to make a trip or two yet this ice season.
2 trips to Gull
1 trip to Upper Red
1 trip to Cass
12 trips to Big Lake
5 trips to Rice Lake
10 trips to the Secret lake
12 trips to Pleassant lake

I guess it's 46 or so trips to fish on the ice this season(so far).

[vince]

I'm not sure of my total for the winter, but I have been out 5 times in the last 6 days. I have never seen the ice bumpier or more slippery than it was yesterday on North Center. That rain we got made it pretty interesting. I'm heading up to Brainerd for a few days to fish with my Dad, hopefully there will still be enough ice for a few more times out around here when I get back.

[trollingforeyes]

40 days approx. 10-12 up in Itasca Co. and the rest on Minnetonka

[Northlander]

Maybe 100? My wife is glad its almost over but she knows opener aint far away!
Somehow Im still married.

[JP Z]

I think I got out 6 times and one of them was the Jaycees event here in Brainerd. Just not a big Ice Guy.

I got out quite a bit this winter but never got an a metro lake. I fished about 18 days on URL and 3 trips to LOW. All in all another great season. My first trip of the year was 12/5/03 compared to 12/26 in 2002.

The crappies cooperated much earlier this year on URL

[IceHawk]

I got on the ice around 70 plus days this winter. I had some good trips and some so-so, but hey any day you get to spend on the water is a blessing.

[LocalGuide]

Not enough, but when it is enough.

I think this ice fishing season I had fished around 25 days.
Me being on the varsity basketball team in the winter, its kind of tough to get out fishing all the time.

Lets see, that would be 20 times to the liqiour store, soooo that would equal about 35 to 40 times fishing. That I can remember?

[hanson]

6- Upper Red Lake
4- Lake of the Woods
1- Devils Lake
1- St. Paul Ice Fishing Show

Went out on Red the day after Thanksgiving. I could count the number of people fishing on both my hands. Quite a spectacular sight to see the lake that empty!

[BIG ISLAND DUDE]

I Only made it out two weekends, caught a few crappies, a lot of perch and two real nice northerns. Its really just an excuse to get drunk with my buds.

I will make it out on the open water just about every day from this weekend(start with a little Carpin') until maybe November.

THANK GOD WINTER IS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ice fishing sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bring on summer!

BIG ISLAND DUDE YOU ARE WRONG! Ice fishing is the greatest thing the state of Minnesota has period.... Where else can any one that wants to fish without a ton of money for a boat and motor get around a lake and do what God intended (catch and eat fish) Every one is entitled to their own oppinon but yours is wrong

[BIG ISLAND DUDE]

I fish a little around "home" (Southern MN), But I mostly fish near the Spicer-Willmar area. Them I consider my home lakes.

Were you at?

Ya no kidding.
I see you maybe looking at Bemidji State.
I want to go there, mainly b/c of the lake. Since it offers courses that I'm interested in, its a win-win situation.
See ya later.
