Cmon up. I've got a nice place at the base, some half price vouchers and more and more mountain knowledge every day.

More Ice Fishing

Went out on 12/26 to test out some Christmas presents (note sled). It was a balmy zero degrees with a frozen mist/fog in the air making it a bit on the brisk side, but the fishing was real good.


My buddy Bob can't find his skimmer, so had to improvise with the kitchen spoon.


This photo is for Philly. So do I brine the trout filets before I smoke them or what is the secret?

Ice Fishin

Well, the photos posted backwards of what I intended, but oh well. Above is a better visual of true life in hunting camp. None of this looking fresh reading trashy newspapers...it is rotted beer drinking with periodic napping.

Last weekend, Neil found the six below zero weather a bit refreshing.


My first fish of the 09-10 ice fishing season



Today I broke my skunk for this ice fishing season thanks to the fact that Erik was reeling in one fish while another one happened to be hitting on one of his other poles by my feet. We all caught fish and it was a beeeaaaautiful day for ice fishing. Next weekend is supposed to drop below zero again, so it'll be time to bust out the ice shack. Merry Festivus to all!

Dry suit sale

I thought I'd get the word out about this Stohlquist drysuit sale I found online. Stohlquist B-pod drysuit for $499 with booties and relief zipper. New neck seal is much more comfortable than latex and just as watertight. They have 20% down layaway until the end of the month. I just ordered mine to replace my NRS.

Josh's Deer


Couldn't have the end of the year hunting photo be a picture of Walt reading the Enquirer.
