Warm weather and fishing

Warm is a relative term, right? It depends on where you are and where you're from. It got warm here yesterday. In the 30's. In some parts of the country, temps in the 30's causes panic and weather warnings. Here in the North, temps in the 30's causes widespread joy and elation, people take off their coats, snow starts to slide off barn roofs and guys go fishing.

Just some interesting fish house pics. Notice the tv antenna.

This guy has a scuba symbol on the door and three antennas.

Antenna.

Sattelite dish.

This is a "Wheelhouse". You pull it out on the ice and then crank up the wheels and go fishing. It also has a sattelite dish. How do you concentrate on fishing when the tv's on?

This is a pressure ridge. The ice expands and pushes against itself and breaks open and forms these things. Sometimes it contracts and then a large crack opens up. Scary.

 This is the average size of the fish I caught yesterday. I admit defeat. I surrender. I'm gonna find a new place to fish.

 You remember this pic of Antoine's comb.

Here's what it looks like now. Poor chicken.
