Official tPB ice fishing thread

Used to ice fish with my dad on Ottertail Lake in Minnesota. My folks had retired there. My dad had a small ice fishing house. We would sit in there, fish and watch the Vikings games on the portable tv we took out there. Great memories. My dad died too young many years ago.

To drink whiskey, eat salami, and listen to AM radio.

8 hours and didn't catch anything Sunday, but almost dropped my phone down the hole. All in all, I'd say huge success!

They were moving SLOW this weekend. I ended up with a couple dozen crappie and doing pretty well on gills but man it took a lot to get anything to bite. A lot of little lines slowly creeping up and slowly going back down

I’m going to try to hit the ice this weekend, but it’s been so effing warm around here.
We’ve had the worst winter since I moved here.

Are you fishing on an Omaha area lake? Do you have a nice hut?

It's way too cold for the possibility of catching bluegill/crappie/bass.

Good hut makes it better. Figured you'd be one of those guys sitting out there in the open.

It’s fucking terrible. Most of my lakes have 8-10 inches of ice
