    Crown Royal Texas Mesquite

    I used to be big into Crown back in my early 20s until i got WAY too hammered drunk on it. Switched to Pendleton, Makers Mark, and Tin Cup on rotation for a few years. Now i keep it simple and cheap, Jim Bean or Jack Daniels mixed with sprite or ginger ale. Anything smokey sounds like i wouldn't...

    Strikemaster Lazer hand auger

    I did this for an entire season last year. It sucked, from some reason or another, no matter how tight i cranked that damn chuck, it was always looks by the end of the day. Nearly lost the hand auger several times, but i was fishing cheap (stupid).

    Christmas Weather Event

    I drove thru Payson back in OCT and down the rim into the Mesa... absolutely blew my mind how beautiful AZ can be. My retirement goal is to end up there. Meanwhlie over in NM they are looking at a foot of snow in most of the state as well.

    Jiffy 44 Pro 8 inch propane vs. K drill

    I love my K-drill, but I also loved my Eskimo HC-40 10" propane auger. Reality was when i had my propane auger we were in heavy snow years where i fished primarily smaller lakes that you couldn't drive on. Having that extra 40lbs off my sled is what made me switch to the K-drill. That Eskimo was...

    New ice rod case

    I have the Striker Ice case and love it. Before that i tried a soft case and hated it. Prior to that my shit was in 5gal buckets. I like the fact that i can backpack my rods and tackle and save space in the sled.

    Line Preferece?

    I'm looking at converting all of mine to braid over the new year as well. Probably Suffix 832. I'm with revolutionz, I rarely fish outside when it's really cold, and if I do leap frogging; outside hole to house to different hole and back to house. I'll use a fluoro leader on all my rods being...

    Ice Pirates??

    Here I was expecting some kind of post involving a hottie ice fishing. Nonetheless, if a guy comes over at me screaming then I'll be a dickhead back. If he wants to just chat I'd have probably moved willingly whether he wanted me to or not. Who the hell fishes with sticks these days anyways...

    embrace the suck...

    "winter is coming" don't worry about the warm spell. You'll be happy in Jan/Feb when you have all this stuff to keep you warm.

    tipup alternatives...

    I'm not a fan of tip-ups either unless solely using them for pike, which I have never actually done. I prefer to just use a slip bobber and open the bail on my reel. Caught many fish using this method. Yes the hole will freeze, but like to walk around every 15-20min and stay loose anyways so I...

    NDGF Fish by Lake Data

    Very useful document now. I've always had the lake contours on my phone, but being able to see netting samples of fish sizes by species is a tremendous addition.

    Ice Auger

    I love my K-drill with clam plate. Got it for a steal at $150 this summer on bisman. Battery is everything though. I have a 1.5 amp standard battery with spare on my 20v Dewalt. Right now I get 6 holes per battery in about 12" of ice. I have a feeling there will be a 5 amp battery in the house...

    Lake Audubon

    Cherry has a lot of pike, but they don't grow as fast as they could because there are so damn many of them. Also might run into a keeper perch here and there. Horsehead lake just east of there has a lot of pike too. Look for the lake listings of Kidder county, there are a ton of lakes. Helen...

    Favorite Jiggin' Rap

    My old man does pretty well with the chubby darters. I personally suck with both the darter and the jiggin' rap. Going to give them more of a shot this year.

    New pet — small dog

    I have two Aussie's, one toy and one full size, and they are as smart a dog as you'll train them to be. Within six months I had their two basic commands trained to be hand signals, just been too lazy to take it any further. Very loyal, and excellent home invasion alarms. The only alibi I have in...
