    Oh no worries, I'm sure you'll be able to get some ice fishing done in no time! Yeah, the weather is less than what I desire, but I'm thankful for everyday there is no snow on the ground. At least this year I'll get to escape the northern cold. Time to start breaking out the winter jackets and boot everybody!!! I keep telling myself this is the LAST MN winter I will endure...

    sorry.. but i believe there is an off season for every sport.. even fishing... and that comes when the water is frozen...

    last winter i never even wore a real jacket... most i wore was a fleece lined hoodie that i own.. and i walked to the bars and whatnot all the time in it... but from what the Farmers Almanac is saying for this winter... i may get a jacket... supposed to be one harsh winter this year

    I luv all of MN seasons!! THere so much you can do, being from small town-I can find fun in nothing. Just need some imagination. But the cold can be a biatch

    I think that's just how the Midwest is...

    Michigan is the same way.
