Looks like you have quite the ice shack

 

[Sask hunter]

No ice Castle but it works good for me. The big windows are nice since I run alot of tip ups

Light enough I can pull it with the quad or sled if needed

Should be able to get on the ice in IN this week. Went from 35 degrees yesterday with a little skim ice on the ponds, to 9 below zero today. Won't take long to make safe ice in these temps.

Got a few nice ones on tipups this week, beautiful weather compared to a week ago.

 

[Treeshark]

Gave the tipups a rest and went after some smaller game today. What they lacked in size they made up in numbers.

Yesterday on Desmet ...first time I've fished it.

Has been an interesting start to the winter, had to deal with some crazy slush limiting access. The heavy snow in northern Wisconsin has really insulated the ice, much less ice thickness than most years at this time. Have been doing pretty well when I've been getting out

 

[Treeshark]

Yes not as much ice in Northern WI as a usual year, for sure.

Talked to couple of guys with the DNR up in Vilas Co. attempting to launch the air boat for a training run this week, the thing wouldn’t budge due to how wet and sticky the snow was. Slush city.

7 pike and a burbot today. Nothing picture worthy

Yes, have a friend that lives on the north end of the lake. He was having trouble catching them through the ice...not anymore.

Long way from having it figured out but enough to catch trout, which I've never found to be too tough. Going to try to figure out the salmon next.

Goofed around on the ice one morning while in MN this last week. Just like the WI posts above me, the slush from the previous heavy snow was pretty crazy. Caught this one while FaceTiming my little cousin, now he wants to get into ice fishing!

When you get the "kokanee catching" figured out, let the rest of us know, as it has been puzzling trying to catch them through the ice.

Tight lines!
