Are there any diehard fishermen out there?

If so, you can borrow my auger. I'm waiting for spring.

Might as well be at the lake!.....They keep shutting down the power every few minutes so if I have to wear a coat inside I might as well have a line in the water.

Ah, yes, hard water season...

If I had my boat, I'd be out in it. It would keep me from wanting to strangle my grandkids, who are here with their Mom and Dad, and their menagerie of animals, who haven't had power since 2:00 a.m. I guess I could go bank fish, and skip the weights and the bait across the ice.

z289sec I am fixing to be in the same situation today kids, grandkids, dogs the works

I chummed a bunch to do some winter fishing and the hill down to the spot if so slick I can’t get there.

Lets go! Who has an icebreaker rig?

I have fished in conditions like this in the past. I mean in the very, very, very, past.

If I didn't have to go try and get our plant back online today, I would have definitely gone today. Hope to have partial steam power restored tomorrow, so we don't have to work on the weekend. Gonna go out one day, to bank fish. Boat still isn't back yet.

Is that Lake Worth?

Yes sir. Frozen over, till where it hits about 15 plus deep. Like at the end of the runway, to the dam. North end of eagle Mountain was the same way.

It hit us pretty dang hard up our way..... This is part of Kerr lake & the Arkansas River
Needless to say the shad kill is massive.... we're going to fish Saturday see what happens
