  I was actully thinking about going this weekend to try it out.  I assume the ice is safe?  Any tips on what to use or how to do it would be great!  I have never ice fished before.

 :yeah:

We had the same story yesterday. The ice is the thickest I have ever seen on the lake, work up a sweet just punching a hole thru. It snowed pretty good all day but the fishing wasnt bad.  Worked the 25" mark with sweeds tipped with the usuall, about 2 cranks off of the bottom.

  I bought a 6 inch mora auger.  It worked good.  Considering drilling through 16 to 18 inches of ice.  Not going to be easy.  Had to chase the fish around.  Did good early, then moved around.
