And now you can imagine my horror. Off to the w's family where we get to eat out of roasters and crock pots which IMO are two items that NEVER should be used for cooking anything. Of course I understand the difficulty when just her parents, their kids and of course grandkids total 48. Aidan's soon to be little brother will be grandchild #20.

Exactly why my 24 hours of eating are now over. Time to fill up on cookies today

Of course to do that we have to bring them.

I also have a quarter pound of tuna tartare leftover which I will eat in front of them and gross them out.

Last hockey game today, then To TSO on wednesday. Thats when the fun begins

Stuffed to the gills with food and treats from yesterday!

Trying to keep warm today as it's -8F right now.

aaaaa.... damn :X

Very interesting design.. i've seen a couple go for around 1.5k.. why not go for a Stetsom or SounDigital?

is it the same/similar Technology?

Not the same ideas implemented. Stetsoms and SoundDigitals are, IMO, something like an all-out drag racer. They work for 10 seconds but you can't daily drive them or track them.

Good thing they both have excellent warranties

Too bad they both look like poopy chinese junk.

Merry Christmas fuckers!

Thank you Seth!

What part of eastern Idaho Are you from Duran? My W was born in Twin Falls. We visit her familly alot who live in Twin, and Idaho falls area's.

I went to Ihop yesterday for breakfast

Hope everyone had a good Christmas!

Spent the weekend at my uncle's place. My cousins got some cool toys and we had a great time testing them out. We went ice fishing yesterday with a Vexilar FL-18 Linky here. It is literally shooting fish in a barrel with that thing. It shows you your jig, the fish, and the bottom. Just lower your jig down to a fish, give a few tugs, and prepare to set the hook. I see it as a cheater method but sunnies are too damn good to argue.

Siting in my uncle's pop-up ice shack from 1981, my feet started to get fairly cold. I had thermal socks on but they just weren't good enough. I've looked at Cabela's, REI, and Bass Pro and there are a ton of options. I really have no reference to go off of. Does anybody have any recommendations or at least some advice on what to look for? It rarely gets below 0 here so they don't have to be too extreme.

So what makes them 10 second amps? Why can't you run them daily?

more like I need a wheelchair

Yep, you need boots with more rubber on the bottom. Thicker bottom soles are the key otherwise there is no cure for the cold. f

Thanks for the tip Sean. I borrowed some 18 inch rubber boots with a low insulation weight. I thought a 3/4" sole would've provided enough barrier from the ice but maybe not. Time to find boots of my own.

I think mine have nearly 2" between myself and the ground. I have the Rocky's that the guy who keeps winning the Iditarod wears. They are fucking warm.

Standing in standard Sorel Pack boots outside without a shelter and 45 min and your feet are frozen. I've been out for 8 hours at a pop and nothing in the Rocky's

I think 1200 or 1400gram thinsulate is what they have as well. Beastly.

For ice fishing though, sole insulation is more important than pack insulation. All about what you are standing on.

Way to make yourself 6'9" . Are you talking about these? Rocky Boots. Those aren't too bad of a price at all.

Sean is a tall mofo-Tippy Top.

You should see the footprint a size 15 of those leaves behind as well. Fucking big foot, eh?

And yes, sort of what I have. Mine look a bit beefier than any of those, but I bet they were replaced by the abominal.

Merry Christmas fuckers!

Thank you Seth!
