As our unseasonably warm December weather continues, I have entered Grinch mode. Has nothing to do with a lack of snow for a white Christmas. Has everything to do with a lack of safe ice for ice fishing.
Just the other day someone walked by me and commented about the beautiful weather we were having that day. I grudging faked a smile back and then grumbled under my breath after there was some distance between us. Grumbled some more as warmth greeted me upon walking out the door on a recent morning.
I am ready for ice!
At the rate we are going, I am considering modifications to my tip-ups:
If you are venturing out onto the ice right now. Don’t forget the spud bar!
Not really anything we can do about the weather. All we can really do is take a deep breath and enjoy the day, everyday! Have a great weekend!
