And it bagan a month or so back

Hit the Other sites NY page and see the new guy just asked "What's the best drill?" 

It's all in fun but wow nobody likes to search for anything or gain personal experience by trying something.

Buddy sent me a slob eye through the ice couple days ago so there's ice someplace in NY. I didn't bother asking where or how thick just "nice eye"

I prefer the “which shanty should I buy” question over “what’s the best drill”

I'm waiting for the "will the ice make it after the rain threads"

[mcully]

Is it better if the thin ice melts before the 4 foot blizzard or will it still make ice with 10 foot drifts
I'm getting coal

Mac, You weren’t around many many years ago on IS when there was an ongoing blather about wind chill freezing water faster. It was absolutely hilarious. One guy argued incessantly that if the temperature was 35 and the wind chill was 25, water would freeze faster.

It went on for weeks and all the smart asses like me had a ball with it.

We even got into ...if two cars are traveling different directions, one into the wind and one with the wind, which windshield would freeze faster. So much fun!

 Just took a walk by the canal.....it thawed and it’s still drained down to a trickle  west of Macedon lock.

Yes I was Bob
You forgot
I was a very famous axe way back.
The DSO thingy.

Archbishop and Friends.

We were bad people.

Oh that’s right. You worshipped at the dark alter. Hopefully you’ve seen the light and have been saved......more or less.

Guess I didn’t pay much attention. That was a fun thread though...wasn’t it?

Archbishop and Friends was awesome
Scott gave us that place and warned us.
(Many times he warned us - lol)
Then, when we witnessed a few things, and even had the proof, everything got a wee bit out of hand.
 

So we started DSO

A long time ago.

I’m feeling much better now.

I hear you.
The big problem were them lying to us when we had legit proof.
Whatever!

That was then.

You can only figure that out after solving Marcum vs. Vexilar!

i have the portable garmin striker setup and I love it. use it all open water long on my boat and kayak and then switch to ice. has waypoint capability, A-scope zoom(which also lets you know how big the circumference of your view is on bottom of lake) for verticle jigging and even has a flasher mode for those who like it. I myself use the traditional on 77hz turned on to high scroll with the A-scope on. gives me temp, time, depth, and everything I need

 

Me too, Garmin Striker4 now all I use for ice fishing, old Marcum VX-1P gathers dust as my backup or let someone borrow it when I have others out with me.
Great device. Even purchased to ice transducer with does everything but give water temp the stock 'ducer it comes with does.
Have set it up foe summer use on my boat with a PVC rig to hold the 'ducer in the water off side of boat so we have 1 up front & my fixed one in back.
Works great in my canoe too.
