I've been itching to get on the ice for a few months now. This is the time of year I start looking at old pics, going through gear and getting the bait tanks ready. The ice is only 4 months away, lets see some pics to get everyone pumped!!!

I bought an auger sharpener, I forget what it cost, maybe $15 and my auger was slicing through ice like new.
