The winner gets a free pond boss mug signed by Mr. Lusk. Also we should vote on the best pic of each month and maybe we could get the monthly winners printed in the mag?

With the rain and warm temps that they are calling for, I don't know if the ice will be safe or not. I was supposed to fish a little tourney the morning of the 31st, but we had above freezing temps yesterday, supposed to be 40s today, possibly 50s tomorrow. And with open water still on most lakes, it doesn't look like getting on the ice would be a good idea. Event postponed. Subscribe to Pond Boss Magazine

With the rain and warm temps that they are calling for, I don't know if the ice will be safe or not. No catfishing here. The bait would just be sitting on top of the too-thin-to-ice-fish ice and, besides, I don't have any catfish anyway!

Nate aced everyone to the nth degree of Fishin� 2010 � I began organizing 2010 pictures and had to give up when Nate�s pictures alone overloaded my computer!!!
