FishErie Ice Gathering?

Is anyone interested in getting together this year? February 20th may be a good date as the ice is only getting better on P.I. Bay right now. Any thoughts?

It was alot of fun. We had alot of good eats and we handed out a few prizes as well. The fishing was good, we all met off the stink hole. Alot of perch and gills with a few crappie and steel mixed in.

Worm Waster has suggested February 27th for the date. Any opposed?

That date would work for me. To date I've been to each of the freezeouts and hope to keep the streak going.

I'm in duUDs

i think that would be a blast i have a couple people to come also.

should get an official date together probably a saturday would work great for most people.

There will be a few prizes donated by FishUSA as usual.w_w.

If I have a vote one way or the other I'd suggest byof/byob. If my normal partner and I make the 3 hour trip we'll have enough stuff to drag along without special food/drink.

I'd also sooner fish than worry about getting food prepared. I think the one year wormwaster had to spend most of his time getting food ready.

That sounds ok to me. It would be easier BYOF&B.
Lookin forward to it.
*still might make up a batch of chili.

Gear Pig award!!!!!!!!!! I won 2nd place in the biggest perch division, got some awesome stuff, including a frogs hair bag that I still use to hold my rods. Either way, I'll have my coleman table and some stoves going for some grub.

everyone can bring something small for food to make it a light trip, one or two bring a coleman stove or portable gas table grill, everyone bring their own drinks, have couple of people bring hotdogs, small package , not expensive, one or two someone bring hotdog buns, someone else bring potato chips, someone else bring pretzles, and someone bring potato salad, can get a big container at Sam's club, etc, etc. You can bring something small , divie it up amoung so it keeps the cost down, and not much trash, especially with foam plates and plastic forks, which the cheapest place for these is dollar general.
27th sounds good to me so far. But got to check with wife make sure there is nothing going on. I would bring something, Have the get together at the one picnic tables before the Niagara boat launch {since it is near stink hole }. just a suggestion.
the alaskan

The fisherie freezout is not all about fishing, its about eating, drinking, bull$hitting with great guys and meeting a whole new bunch of people that love the same passion, most importantly have fun.

I cant make it on the 20th. job interview thats important. might blow it off though.
we'll see, would love to come.

cool, probably can make it on the 27th. still might blow off the interview. I can work all summer instead.
Do I have to bring food or not?
