[QUOTE="MuskyManiac, post: 241683, member: 381"] Went up Thursday night and fished Friday, Saturday and a little on Sunday. Friday started off decent, but by noon the wind was whipping and it was snowing and quite cold fishing without a shelter. We shut it down a little early that day and hit the peelers and the Bronze Boot for supper. Saturday and Sunday were both pretty sunny and nice, even though the temps were still below normal. I've never seen the ice in such good condition for the last weekend...no cracks, ridges or water to deal with at all. We caught a number of keeper-size fish, but no real monsters. My buddy did get a master right at 28.25, but all I managed was a 25 and 26. Lots of vehicles on the ice. It's so funny watching some of these people beat the shit out of their trucks. We had one guy come by us probably showing off a bit and a hit a hard snow ridge and got airborne a bit. His gas auger came flying out of the back of his pickup. I so wish I had that on video. It's so froze up there yet that trucks still mostly drive right on top of any remaining drifts. I do have to say this is the third year of using nothing but electric augers up there and how damn nice that is. Even so, drilling a bunch of 48 inch deep holes still gets the back a little sore at the end of the day. I can't imagine doing that anymore with a gas. I bought the 12.0 Milwaukee battery this year, and I got 23 holes out of that puppy.
