Im not complaining as I love the 4 seasons. You can still spend many nights by the campfire into early January with a cold beer. The colder the temps, the colder the beer stays, and then I wont need a $500 cooler to keep them cold.
i absolutely love ice fishing. and i love the fall weather leading up to it. Hoodie weather, gun shooting weather, in my opinion fall leading up to winter is where sportsman are the busiest and its the most fun. Football, deer hunting, ice fishing, going to the local small town bar for a beer after a day of ice fishing with your fishing partner. it doesn't get any better
