well there's enough ice on our lakes here in minnesota to get out with the fish houses, portables anyway. got out the other day, seen 3 only got 1. they are pretty spoked yet for there's no snow on the ice. the 2 i didn't get were in the 10lb range, but the one i got was 3lbs and tasted real good.

going to try again today if the wind goes down, it's 4 degrees right now with a wind chill of -20 degrees, so im going to see by noon if the wind goes down like they say it's suppose to.
