Generally I am about as diehard as it gets for bowhunting, but this year I don't know if I could possibly be any more ready to hit the ice than I am right now. I've had my chisel in my truck for a few days now getting ready to check the ice as it shows up. I'll be posting a LOT of local ice conditions as I find them around the Chisago lakes areas and beyond. I'm just ready to fish! lol
