Cannot Wait!

Daryl Bauer, Fisheries Outreach Program Manager

When we start getting some cold nights and I start seeing waterbodies with a skim of ice I get antsy. As far as I am concerned, we should have six months of ice fishing every year.

Stumbled onto this old Cabela’s commercial and I definitely relate!

Oh yes, I have gone electric with my hole drilling, but I still have the ole Jiffy and I love that sound! Gotta start ‘er up now and then to make sure it still runs!
