Ice pranks
Came across this thread on another site and thought it was hilareous..
http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=123644.0 Not a prank but the funniest thing I ever saw while Ice fishing was on Bull Dam about 20 years ago..
I was taking out my new Ice Hut had been fishing in the open for years and now I finally had a brand new hut..
It was quite windy so we had to keep one person in the hut at all times so it didn't blow away...
The fella with me was a little on the larger size and was manning the hut while I went out to do some jigging....
I look over just as a big gust of wind hits the hut and it really strains to stay up right..
My buddy decided to stand up and look down the hole at the same time the gust of wind hit...Once you get 300lbs moving forward it's kinda hard to stop it...Inertia and all..
The wind flipped the shanty and pushed him over onto his face and the front wall of the hut...
As I am running over to help him the wind is puching him and the shanty across the ice until our lines are now trailing out of the hut...
When I get too him and the hut stops skating across the ice, I look inside and Kev is laying on his back with the minnow bucket chugging water and bait all over him, he was wrapped up in 4 rods, 2 chairs, a radio and all our tackle in 1 pile...
He tried to get up and put his hand on the still lit lanter and burned his hand and the lantern melted a nice hole in the hut wall....
And then just to pour salt into his wounded pride..His new hunting coat he wore ice fishing to keep him toasty, blew out of the back of the truck somewhere on the way home...
Needless to say it was the last time Kev went ice fishing with us..
