Hey Everybody!!!! I'm also pumped for the HARD WATER SEASON to begin here in Upstate NY--only have about a 1/2 inch to an inch at present (if that)!! I agree with Bullworm in that I wouldn't venture out unless there's a good 4 inches of ice out there!!! Can't wait to get DRILLIN!!!!

Hey guys...living in the Mid-Atlantic doesn't always mean icefishing opts each year. Usually, we have to make the run to Deep Creek Lake for big yellow perch, bluegills and walleyes. In the Mason-Dixon region sometimes the lakes freeze over, but just not quite thick enough to get out safely and fish. That's when we fish either hot-water plant discharges for smallmouths or Delmarva millponds for crappie and pickerel.<br />

Uh Huh! I'll just listen to them little cubes of ice in my drink here beside my recliner. They snap crackle and pop enough for me. Ya'll have fun. Remember, early ice is clear so when you go under you can look up through it and kiss normal goodbye! You know, there are exceptions on my life insurance for drag racing, hang gliding and other death traps, LIKE DRILLING HOLES IN THE ICE UNDER MY FEET!!!!!!<br />

Boogieman,its not that bad really the unnerving part is whan the ice is still thin and it starts singing to ya (making ice) thats when its cracking and making all kind of noise each lake is different though some sing more than others usually the clearer the water the more they sing. Plus early ice is pretty cool too when you get the good clear ice and can see everything underneath you.<br />
I'll try to take some pics and post them later I may get out today and I know some lakes I can take a few pics…

I start sweatin' just thinking about getting out on ice. Ya'll are crazy! Who do you think you are? Tiger Woods drillin' holes everywhere? You see what happened when he went through. Ruined his whole industry I heard.<br />
<br />
Man, it's 41 degrees outside here. I ain't even thinking about going fishing in this kind of weather! I'll just sit here in my recliner and shiver thinkin' about ya'll.<br />

Remember, I know CPR and I will save you,,,,,,come spring thaw!<br />
