well..........i'm baaack!!!!!!!!!

got there friday, got my stuff done and headedout to the little lake by us. brother was out spearing........i chased crappies/ got 3 brother got a pike.

saturday headed to gunderson...........what a disappointment.....access wasnt plowed and i didnt want to chance going in there all alone with a trailer behind. snow is pretty hard. went back to the cabin and set up on cabin lake........what an effin mess...... slush.......slush........and more slush. i seen 2 places where the snow was sunk down where it looked like water was coming up.  seen 2 fish. brother speared a 12 lber and doinked another on the head.

sunday more slush, the little lake didnt have any we came across. took spearhouses off by noon and hit the crappie hole. we ended up with 20 crappies and 2 bass.

Geiger's on Thursday with the neighbor's wheelhouse, didn't want to get any further off their road than needed because of the snow. Didn't see any slush or many fish either. Winnie & Highbanks on Friday,  busy before noon, more fish but all were small except the pout. Out here yday pm just sittin on buckets, all little ones here too. Bowstring had 16" of pretty good ice, Winnie had 17" of good clear ice where they'd plowed spots, didn't check it here but there was quite a bit of slush. There has been a pickup comin out of the resort the last 3 days though.

[Steve-o]

They were good enough for ol' Casey Jones...



Valkin' in my vinter undervare!

[LPS]

I have light ones and thicker ones.  I put the light ones on in November and wear them until April.  I do warsh them now and then.

[Gunner55]

If it's that cold & I need to be out in it very long I just slip on my ice fishin bibs. Easier than long johns for me.

[mike89]

bibs here too.. 

[glenn57]

You guys ain't  'ing me. When you talk bibs, your talking the bib so you don't dribble on your shirt.

Sorry Dotch dared me.

[mike89]

we have seen your shirts!!!  bibs won't help!!!   

[glenn57]

we have seen your shirts!!!  bibs won't help!!!   

why do you think I don't use them.

[Jerkbiat]

Bibs here to when I am outside and it is really cold. To wear long jons here at work would be way to warm inside all day.

[Gunner55]

Have to agree JB, way too warm inside with long johns on. Besides my bibs are usually on a hook right by the door to the garage this time of year anyway.

Re: Super bowl menu
“
  Had a little of that yday at their buffet in GR. Hadn't been in there since they remodeled.”
So, Gunner, is their full buffet open like it was pre-COVID times?  Every time I drive by, I’ve wondered when that was going start back up. I noticed Country Kitchen has a sign out that they’re open. They flat out shut down for a while without even takeout.
Sammys has done a nice job on the remodel/expansion.

[Gunner55]

  Yeah, looked like business as usual to me other than the seating arrangements. There was a box of the gloves that food prep people often wear in the middle of the buffet by the plates along with a sign urging people to follow the state's directive & wear them when getting their food too.

[glenn57]

pretty quiet on the cams this morning for a saturday!!!!!

[Gunner55]

Quite a few people around though, as Riley's was busy for HH yday. A lot of locals but not all, 2-3 groups on sleds, kitchen was busy too including quite a bit of carryout.

[Gunner55]

 There's a black pickup & 2 Eskimo portable shelters out on the bay since ~ noon.

Is that not good ? 

[Gunner55]

Good for them , yeah. Sane maybe not! It's hard for me to enjoy doing much of anything outdoors when the WC is -40.   

[glenn57]

sure has been quiet on the cams lately. one thing i've noticed on the narrows cam there hasnt been what i would assume is the spearhouse out in front all year like it was last year??????????

[merc]

Geigers posted they have 21" of ice now and he has nine miles of roads on the lake. A tad cold to go now. Probably wait till March for my next trip.

It was out there pretty close to it's usual spot early on, then we had a little warm weather & it was gone. The Narrows started lookin pretty iffy then too, don't think the shack even made it a week. This was all before we came up on 1/6.

[Gunner55]

Looks like the silicone on the auger's primer bulb did it's job as there was no leak & it popped right off yday. I'll give it another look before we go to town next & even then I'll grab a replacement, if L & M still carries 'em.

[Gunner55]

A lot quieter @ Riley's yday, did look to be 2-3 vehicles over at the resort by ~ 3 though. No activity out front yet though.

[Gunner55]

Looks like the guests over at the resort out on the bay to me , been 4 portables & a couple pickups out there for about an hour now.
