tubn2 .You will be seeing more posts from me in the spring when the water softens and warms a bit.[laugh] We are devoid of ice at the moment but it will be back.
I've been reading with great interest, tube dude's ventures on the cold water. I tried to follow the experiance here, but even w/ oversized wader and boots ,I got pretty cold at 40 degree water.
I'll be looking at some neopreme waders. When I say cold, I speak mostly of my feet. At 65 I probably don't have the circulation I need[crazy] I wear a size 10 1/2 and my Cabella's breathable waders are a roomy 12 1/2. 2 pair of wool socks are just a bit crowded.
I know a spot where the crappie hit good at ice out, and I want to be there in the spring as the ice receeds . Thank you for the welcome, Mike
