time to build ice shack!(pics has started)

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Steve, won't ya crack the crap outta the stucco when you tow the shack on and off the ice. Oziles isn't known to have nicely plowed roads on/off the ice. Would look kick butt though! See you and Rob out there, you putting it on Bait Shop Bay or Walleye Bay?

Scuba, did you get some tin for your roof? I left you a link in the classifieds. Someone was giving some away free.
