random question, but my 5 year old has been going crazy asking me to take him ice fishing, which is out of the blue because in spring/summer/fall he had zero interest in doing anything besides digging worms. can we just head out and find some open holes in the cove and drop some trout magnets down? should i stop and pickup some minnows, worms, is it anything like panfishing in summer? i have never fished it way too lazy but dont want to skunk out.

re: safety gear, going to make him wear a pfd, he has studded boots already, just need to get some ice picks, rope

Skunked! It was super slow by dows. But we had a fun day, and might have witnessed the winning perch? we only had 3 rods setup. Keeping a 5 year old busy on the ice was kind of easy especially since he just wanted to walk around and talk to everyone.

Gotta keep at it and eventually you’ll hit the mother load!!!

I heard through the grape vine that some NJFers may be in the money! :D

We plan on it. Just placed an order for an auger drill chuck adaptor and enough tip ups to cover a couple acres.

Well, we didn't enter the contest since this is our 1st real season of trying out ice fishing. But we did show up and fished and felt like we were in the contest.
I got skunked myself cause I was too busy using my new toy (Aqua-vu camera) I guess. But my buddies did OK. NW with 2 perch, 1 Larry and one snot rocket. JP with 3 solid perch. Maybe we will jump in the next ice contest and try our luck.
