One of the things I was looking forward to when I moved up to New Hampshire getting into ice fishing. I have been out a few times since I moved here, but not nearly as much as I would like. I found the process kind of cumbersome. Especially when I am by myself. This Christmas Marylynn got me the things I needed to round out my ice fishing kit. A battery-powered ice auger should make things a hell of a lot easier. I have always gotten pretty tired of drilling holes by hand. The power auger will allow me to move around and search out the best places to fish and the flasher/fish finder I received for Father’s Day will tell me what’s under the ice. The pack basket will be great to keep my tip-ups neat and tidy.

Now if Mother Nature would cooperate that would be great. It seems that I may find safe ice north of the notches, but the flooding and rain have washed away most of the ice here. I am really looking forward to some fresh fish tacos!
