You don't wanna know what I paid for diesel the other day at the pumps, lol.

I hope you didn't pay $1000 for an ice auger.

Hopefully it's a 2pc rod, will be a lot easier to ship.

Isn't there a propane shortage which is leading to the price hikes? It's not like the prices went up just because.

Get a big postal tube... Only way to ship a rod...

What about an old fashioned wood stove? Sure beats freezing to death no?

Hopefully all the rivers are blown out before opener so the fish do their thing and get back to the lake before the onslaught happens!

Brian, how many of those badboys did you get? I need some big bait like that for spring pike!

GoPros with hooks attached to them!

Make sure you boys turn your GPS off before taking a picture with your iPhones

How much more are we talking about? $5-$10? Lots of retailers will even ship up here for nothing.

It was redirected halfway to the net, although I still think he should have had it.

Chris, we'll have to try these out night fishing this year

Caught my first tagged fish last year out in the lake.. Pretty cool to see it swim away for someone else to catch.

Ditto. A pelican case or similar will keep them nice and dry even completely submerged As for a P&S, get something waterproof (Panasonic TS, Canon D20, etc)

I need an auger I can use out on the ice roads to! LOL!!!!

You gotta pay to play.

If your auger sucks, the ice gets thicker and thicker with every turn

Either would I man, there's no one I'd rather fish with

My oldman also has the reaction time of a turtle. Topwater fishing, lure is under, big swirl, he's just keeps 'walking the dog' like nothing happened. I'm in the front of boat yelling SET THE HOOK!!!!!! I tell ya, I wish some of this was recorded, anytime I bring buddies fishing they end up pissing themselves laughing because of the banter back and forth.

Good luck Mike! I'm stuck at home doing oncall... Next weekend however is a different story!

Even I got the newfie sarcasm!!! LOL!

Stop in at the Brass Rail before leaving the city and 1 of your criteria will be met! LOL!

You got it. Remember, BEDMAS

You can order it from pretty much anywhere.
