[QUOTE="Lungdeflator, post: 238536, member: 5163"] We've had some fun times and some not so fun times, also some times that can be chalked up to just plain stupidity. My dad would take us out fishing when we were young. He had a 10" auger. Don't know how many times he told us not to fill in the holes, but we did it anyways (dang kids!), he ended up stepping in one and going in up to his knee. Looking back its crazy lucky he didn't break his leg. Looking back its crazy lucky he didn't leave us out on the ice for the birds. I built an 8x6 permy skid house for our little lake back in MN in high school. Of course we thought it would be a great place to drink away from the parents. Turns out 13 people is about the max you can fit into an 8x6 fishouse when its -10 degrees. My buddy and I ended up making a fire outside the house and freezing our asses off. A few years ago on Sak my wife and I were out fishing on Douglas. Beautiful afternoon and we were catching some eyes'. We could see a huge wall of clouds coming from the west, didn't think too much of it. Hardly any snow on the ice, really slick. Well that wall of clouds turned out to be a wall of 50mph wind. We had the flip over attached to the ATV and when the wind went from 5mph to 50mph in a matter of minutes, we got blown a couple hundred yards down the lake. Dragging transducers, lines, flip over, and ATV. Had to send the dog to retrieve the walleyes after they got blown away. [/QUOTE]
