Hey Alex,

Actually the ice fishing is not so bad.

Here's a tip to accelerate your (and other newbie's) learning on this site:

.........Go fishing, ............take a few pics if possible, and then post a "first report" describing the general location (specifics are neither necessary nor wise), what gear and tackle you used, and the experience envelope. Just do your best and enjoy the process.

Too many members believe that a report has to be a polished piece suitable for the Times........... NOT SO!............... they simply should be truthful and honest. Most likely this will gain you access to the reports based (of course) on MA's review for suitability and content.

In fact you need not even catch fish........... reports of a "skunking" are EQUALLY valuable as brilliant success - since they serve to inform others of a low catch % event/location, and thus save others the bother and frustration.

The site is about sharing............ both our good days, and our not so great days....... in this way we all learn more, much more quickly and effectively................. Dig?

Cheers,

OldTimer
