Today here in Jackson, Ga. high was 38 with 20-30 mph winds. Had to get the itch off and put on the Strkyer ice fishing suit and cranked up the livescope. Was about as misserable as I'll fish although only my hands were cold. I keep a set of electric warmers in my life jackst pocket and spent more time with my hands in my pocket than out but still managed to put 7 in the boat between 5-6 pm. nothing to brag about but proved they will still eat.

Days like those make us appreciate the nice ones even more....
I'm going today but am waiting till the temps rise just a bit. 30 degrees here this morning but the wind has laid a bit. Nice post, makes a man want to fish.
Nice but 44 degrees colder than that here right now! :banghead
Love my Stryker suit. I have the Stryker lite, and it keeps me warm in below zero temps on the ice.

Just to give you a flavor for the conditions, we recently in last week got 5" of rain. Water went from clear to stained, Water temps dropped from 58 to 48 from 5 day's ago with blue bird sky's and as mentioned brutal winds. I know you northern guy's are going big deal on the weather which is why I don't live up north. Yall are tougher than me. But from a fishermans perspective, this would be about as bad of conditions that I could describe from a fish catching scenario but still was able to put a few in the boat. At 62 not as tough as I used to be. Scott
Good stuff
You northern guy's are tough. I was wearing the Apex and definately not too warm. Scott
Was 15 when I went out this morning, and only managed a single perch, no crappie. 13 inches of ice.Attachment 500865
Glad that you roughed it out and the fish made it worth the trip. I’ve launched in 24 and 27* but I probably wouldn’t do that now. Y’all that do it regularly have my respect.
I Hear That Brother! I'm a wait for the 35 degree morning to warm up. I catch anytime of day so no 35 degree boat rides for me.Quote:

Im not sure why some are side-wards, the originals were not
Oh wow! Nice!!!
Also with the pictures, it is how the website works that it’s better if you have an png file helps with the orientation

Ice season here will go into early April I would guess, was drilling through 30” last few times out…. That being said ice is never fully safe two guys drown on two separate lakes last week.

We were down to six inches. Four black and the rest white +/-. I needed planks to get back in, in the afternoon. The shorelines are gone. I could go north chasing ice, but I have lots to do for spring.
