Now that I look at the picture, is this considered ice fishing? Thats a hell of a fishing pole.

Up here the concern is not how thick is the ice for weight bearing reasons, its how thick is it so I know if I need one, two or three extensions for the ice auger.

I'm geared up but haven't been out yet due to the -30 weather.

There was a truck that went through down her e a month agao in Big Lake Tik.

yeah, Todd gauges the ice with auger extensions.
1 extension- not safe for vehicles
2 extensions- safe for small to mid size sedans
3 extensions- safe for Cathrynn, er uh

I mean Dodge trucks

Todd Rahm · January 05, 2009, 01:55:07 PM

Nope.

1 extension- 4 foot of ice (Not safe for Jims date)
2 extensions- 5 foot of ice (Questionable for Jims date)
3 extensions- 6 foot of ice (Should be safe for Jim to bring his date, as long as she has skipped the meals for the day, and to be safe, walk at least 10 feet behind her........just incase)

NOW THATS AN ICE HOUSE !

Bobhouses Starting To Dot NH Lakes
POSTED: 10:47 am EST January 5, 2009

MEREDITH, N.H. -- In a sure sign that winter is here, bobhouses are sprouting up on New Hampshire lakes.

Ice fisherman were busy over the weekend setting up the structures on small frozen lakes and bays on Lake Winnipesaukee. Many were already speculating about who would win the annual Great Rotary Fishing Derby, scheduled for February, which attracts about 6,000 participants.

While many of the bobhouses are simple, some are quite elaborate. Peter Muse, of Meredith, hauled out an 800-pound bobhouse called the Lodge, which includes a front porch, chandelier, propane fireplace and television.

LOL, hes the administrator, he can get by with that.

KySongDog · January 05, 2009, 05:13:10 PM

I was born in Minnesota. My grandfather used to take me out on the big lakes, once in a while. Never been back to Minnesota since I was about twelve, but I had some idea about the temperatures when a friend suggested we do something new and try ice fishing for Brook trout on the Eastern Sierra Trout Opener. It was unbelievable at Lake Sabrina, don't remember the elevation at the moment, but it's way up there. That ice was over five feet thick, and many people don't think it gets cold in California. Well, the snowpack in Truckee Pass most years is over 600 inches. Anyway, the hot fishing was over on the far side where the creek empties into the lake and I wasn't going over there....chicken. We were skunked and froze our butts off, no shack, no windbreak, just exposed. I never tried that again. Lost a six foot digging bar too. I've seen pictures of the fancy cabins. Must be nice? I'd try it that way, but on those high elevation lakes, it's for the birds, takes a real he man, not for me. Been there, done that.
