If you've never been ice fishing you should check out this contest. It's really a good time and if you use common sense and dress right, it's not cold at all. It can really be quite pleasant and very fun. Over the years I've spent a lot of time on the ice fishing and hanging out and enjoying the scenery around me. I've also seen some really big fish come through that small hole in the ice. You can use a gas or hand powered auger. I have a hand powered one and it's never been a problem getting through the ice. That's because someone else always cuts the hole for me.
I've lived on Colorado's Western Slope for over 26 years. I love this area and all it has to offer, and I enjoy sharing what I know about my home. As a REALTOR®, I also love to share my expertise in this area as well. If you need any real estate information for Montrose County, or Delta County, Colorado...please give me a call.
