Right. Right. I once went fishing at Allens pond and sat with a minnow on the line.It must have been 10 degrees out. A DNR fella came by and asked my friend Craig and I what we had caught. We said a buzz .He asked us to pull up our lines and the minnows where frozen solid. He told us not to leave any time soon. We didn't but we did get out of the house when it was hella cold. Just thought I'd share.

lol yes i know but out here it is different we used minnows and the wing dam we was fishing at kept the curent flowing under the 2 and a half feet of ice and we was catching sauger it was fun it was my first ice fishing trip the cold was not a problem the ice house we was in had a wood burning stove in it
