Hard for me to endure the current poor fishing conditions when I got rememberies of the super fishing in the "olden days". Used to be able to get out and catch a lot of fish even without the electronics, power sleds, GPS, jawjackers, tents and other stuff you gotta have to do it these days. I got rid of all my ice fishing gear and don't care to have to take out a third mortgage to gear up again.(10-16-2023, 07:22 PM)TubeDude Wrote: I would need to jack up my old body and put a new one under it. Haven't had the ability or inclination to get on the ice for several years now. I miss it.
Pat, I know a guy that got pretty good at taking his FIL out on the ice after his easy mobility days had passed... If you would like to go I'm pretty sure I can get you out on the ice safe and I've got a great shelter for fishing two... Let me know and I'd love to have you join me... Jeff
(PS.. We had Rich sit on the plywood deck at the back of my X-200 sled and I just pulled him out to where we fished with the snowmobile.) Never did lose him, although one time he did get a little nervous on the steep hill at Newton...
