New to Ice Fishing

Hello folks, I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly (I've never been on a forum before)so if I'm doing something I'm not supposed to please let me know.

I'm a pastor who lives in the Pittsburgh area who has a passion for fishing. I have just recently bought some basic ice fishing gear, but have only been ice fishing 1 time about 15 years ago. I would like to begin to learn how to ice fish, and I am hoping a more experienced ice fisherman in the Pittsburgh area would be willing to allow me to tag along with them some time in the next few weeks & show me the ropes. I would be willing to drive, split gas, bait, or whatever.

Thanks fellas!

    Preacher, you'd be more than welcome to come out on the ice with me, although I don't have much to teach cause I'm still a rookie on the ice. Although, I know that on Shenango, there are quite a few nice people that ice fish there that are willing to show a new guy a thing or two.

    Ok, maybe we can get connected then. I might just venture out on my own this Sunday and see if i can get lucky. I was thinking about Keystone lake or Crooked creek lake. Any Suggestions?
