Swamp Fly 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2016 I beg to differ, we have ice fishing. It's call fishing a bug out of your Gin & Tonic while floating in the pool! Pick whatever month you want. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you float in the pool from December to February, you're not a true Floridian but clearly a northern transplant! To us natives, those months are freezing and require the use of those parkas we own for some reason. If you can see your breath, its freezing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swamp Fly 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2016 LOL! If you really want go ice fishing sometimes sacrifices are necessary, even in Florida! Gotta love a place where you go duck hunting in shorts and a t-shirt because you get to hot otherwise. Don't get me started trying to find camo boots that aren't insulated.

Poopdeck 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2016 Ill take winter over that blazing hot and insufferable humidity of summer in Florida. Plus perch filets from ice water is about as good as it gets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are too many people down here already. It's good to know some people will stay up there during the winters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVette 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2016 And I keep 3 types of waders. Hip breathers for the fall when the waters reach that perfect 42F. Bib breathers for the days when it is about 60 out but the water is dipping toward 38 or so, Then my bib pro neoprene's for when the snow is flying the banks are icing and yet they are biting on nymphs. You guys sound like you a break a sweat too often. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adam Saarinen 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2016 Beer never goes warm when you walk the dog here in winter! Drank half a can of coke on the way to work in winter, left it in the cup holder frozen solid for 3 weeks! Gotta love it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
