Welcome to OFC John, WE LOVE PICS! (p.s. it'll be -20 when you get back man)

Those were awesome Cliff. Looks like your Dad liked to get outdoors with you guys. I always treasured the times spent outdoors with my dad and look forward to carrying on the tradition. Thanks buddy, G.

Thank for the scoop!

Your Omega 3 count must be through da' roof Nicely done!

Pimple Cream. The young associates will bend over backwards to aid your quest. Thank me later.

Give it up Castrotti! She's mine! We swing in this house. (call me Joey 1-800-HOT-FISH)

Whoa, I think I might have that many "empties" in the garage! Cha Ching!!!!

The only thing hotter than that chocolate is you. Conversely, I hear you don't drill holes, You just talk to the ice and it melts. In addition, If I was a fish (and I'm glad I'm not) I would hop into your lap. Groooooowl.

I give up (and I haven't even started!)

With such a tool at your disposal our expectations are higher!

Howdy Carole, I know that this task took a lot of effort. My aunt did the same thing for our family and it is exhausting! She thought about it every day, tackled every remote lead and had to sift through hundreds of photos and letters! Your family will appreciate your effort for generations as it becomes more difficult to get the documentation Great job Amiga' Grantissimo

I have Laridaphobia If you don't know what it is, you soon will. It all started when I was a wee lad. First, they seemed friendly. (as seen here with my mom, happily feeding) Then one day with my Dad, they turned on me I've been consumed with fear ever since Don't laugh. Other members here have the same Phobia. We have a support group. Here's GCD when he was a lad. (circa 1932) Here's CCMT when he was a young lad(?). Pigeons are his thing. Carole says his night screams are brutal and she can't cook with breadcrumbs anymore. I understand Cliffy. This is my nocturnal nightmare messenger from hell The Plan So I look up some therapists in the phone book and find a radical Master who uses extreme techniques to conquer your worst fear by combining it with your greatest passion. Well obviously mine is fishing! Under the guidance of my Master I will strive to abolish this debilitating fear First day of training involved a symbolic consumption of my Nemesis's spirit. He made me eat them all. Then it's off to the war zone. I fell to my knees but got back up again determined to beat this thing People need signs like this?? Wake up before it's too late. Where are they? I asked the master Master says to look for the fat ladies who chum the waters Or the old ladies who will use children as bait (sickening) But Master had a friend who was a conjurer or a Seagull Siren, if you will. FreakyFingersFreida She brought our Nemesis closer Then out of the heavens or up from HELL they came!! Master sees a flock of seagulls approaching! Sorry wrong ones, here they are Master quickly pulls out his rod, First cast and Master screams, "BIRD-ON!!" It's putting up a fight but the Master pulls in his prey Closer, my precious Master calms the winged beast with an ancient cross-handed-tiger-style grip. He removes the bait like a Zen vet He then reveals to the captive the tool of it's demise Master is happy because he sees the fear in my eyes melt away He has broken down my walls Our prey has been warned and released to inform the others of their peril shall they decide to pursue us in the future. ONE YEAR LATER I am doing much better. I got a tattoo to celebrate 1 year of fearlessness I can read and fall asleep peacefully In fact, here is a little gem I caught this year all by myself Though, I am not quite as forgiving as my Master Conquer your fears. You can do it, Yes you can. S.

I won't enter with you around. Ghastly Cheating Dawg We know you chum the waters with your pheromones.

Awesome.

I'm shocked nobody gives a damn about the pollution this has caused. (submerged gas tank) It preventible stupidity. Poisoning our recreational sport isn't worth the few who icefish with a vehicle this size. Thanks for making sure I won't eat fish there buddy!

You are hardcore! If half the people here only knew!!!!!! You're like the terminator! The band called the "Ozark Mountain Daredevils" had an album named: Nuclear Fishin' it was dedicated to you!!!

Must be a new diet?

Pliers Glasses lures Weights Bottle(s) Consciousness No particular order

Brings back memories of my parents pics. Please post more. That applies to anyone. It's OUR heritage.

That was great IF. I've had my nuts sheared off figuratively and literally too. Thought I had a flat, and then the realization hit me like the bill! Some very nice food you landed!

Bravo What a great read and photos. I love winter travel. That 1 catch was worth it!

No wonder she looks starved

Like they said above! Would love some posts as they came. Great job
