Raylan Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Looks like I'm going to take up ice fishing this year. Always enjoyed fishing with the family in warm weather but was never really attracted to freezing my butt off on a frozen lake in Jan to go fishing in a hole cut in the ice. But come Jan 20th I will be ice fishing for the first time. Probably take all my guns out with me. Hope I don't have a tragic ice fishing accident.

Michigan Slim Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 It was looking like I might get out this weekend but it's going to warm up a little. Maybe the next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyesa Horg Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Kinda Rednecky but apparently you used to be able to hunt/fish on Lake Champlain here with a rifle. I was told by one hunter/fisherman 30-30's were the way to go. Stand in the flooded waters on a step ladder and shoot 'em! Seem the concussion takes them out! Saw it the fishing book years ago, but not lately. Ya think someone might of been injured by a ricochet off the water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think about the problem with filleting, but I was pretty sure that they was going to be real hard to fry. Roll it in cornmeal and drop it in the hot grease? I don't think I would like to try that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finagler 6853 Life Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Old went out I've fishing one fine January day. He came home at the end of the day and Lena asks him where all the fish are? One replies, silly woman. It took me all day to make a hole big enough to put the boat in. I'll probably be on the ice with the AIM this weekend. I'm ambivalent about it.

Works much much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
