Getting my rubber roof on in 50 degree weather and everything we got done back then was smarter than waiting 'til now since it's not going to be above freezing for awhile, eh Jim?

Right On!! Hope it stays below freezing until we have good ice at this point.

I got a new base for my generator to sit on built and painted while it was warm. Painted and or stained some wood on my trailer as well. Lost my last base to the early rain and slush last year.

Got a custom canvas cover made for the trailer as well to keep road salt and weather off my gear.

I will be at the show today, Friday. Cant wait!!!!! Going to pick up Catch Cover's new grate covers for my house.

I will be up to Hunter's next week. Hope to see you then.

We're making ice right now at 19 degrees and high of only 30. While you're at the show, stop by and check out the Hunter's Point booth. Scottie's there live. Wanda wanted to come, but all these manakin activists protested.

(She happens to like cement overshoes!)

Way to Go Jon. I have a HP Guide A house resreved with Scottie -- for my visit on 12/30/11. Cannot wait to hook up and see you. Wanda wants to go fishin too.

We are makin' ice out there today on the big pond -- no doubt. smile smile smile

I have about 6-7 inches of new snow here in the Black Forest; lotsa deer mving around too. I will send a few over....

I have to go blow so snow drifts out of the dirveway with the John Deere.

My Macho Minnow and Swedish pimple rigs are ready now! biggrin wink biggrin

Have fun hold down the fort.

Tony, Scott and the boys from Roach's Guide Service will be spottin' the locations for the guide houses, so you have the pros puttin' you on 'em, champ.

MCallies · Malmo Bay Bomber

That is great news Jon.

Thanks for the update. If the ice is good, I should havea hot spot on 12/30/11 for a day of fishing in a Guide A house.

I bought my Marcum LX5 sonar from Tony and Scott. Those guys can track em down...

A bunch of the Red Door and Hunters Point guys are down at the ice show EH? So you must be holding down the fort EH?

Get er done.
