Wilderness Warmth Newbies

Recommended Posts

Just moved the fish house to WW. My fishing buddy and I are very excited to hit the frozen pond this year. Just completed the remodel and ready for ice. Just thought I would introduce ourselves. I have heard many good things about WW and that is why we decided on this location. OH... and there will be a house warming party also, which every new house should have!

See you on the pond,

Icehopper and the man with 10,000 songs.

I'll squeeze in a few fish in between parties! I expect a very good bite this year, if not I'm still smoking tullibees!

Looking forward to both. I've heard the day bite was good last year. How far do they plow out? Or did you use the house as a base and travel elsewhere?

The day bite can be O.K. for eyes,good for tullibee! They plow out about 5 miles. a bit past spirit island. They have limited structure but it holds fish. I would plan on moving around a bit to find them. The night bite can be good too, you will enjoy having your shack there.

Our big winter weekend bash is Jan 28-30. The theme is based on the olympics. I think we already have a good number of shacks rented and or reserved for the event. It is a good time with alot of ladies! Unfortunately it was the only weekend last year I didn't catch fish! ( I wonder why???)

Ha ha, very funny. Still waiting for word from jay. He was going to try and get the tree off of it today and let me know abetter idea of the damage. I have zero talent in this area so it should be interesting!

OH NO! A tree hit your shack in this last storm?

Yeah, jay said it was a 35 or so foot tree. He was going to try and get it off the house and give me an idea of the damage. Haven't heard from him yet.

Bad timing! If it wasn't deer hunting i could give you a hand. If you need help first ice fixing it i can help. I just built a cabin too, so i have know how and materials too. Hopefully it is not too bad. I did notice this summer that your shack was next to the trees, I painted mine. I'm brown with white trim now.

I don't even remember what your shack used to look like, the only time I saw it was at last years party! That night is kinda fuzzy!

Our big winter weekend now has its own web site about the event smile . Check it out if you have a shack at WW or are interested. Crazy Winter Weekend works in searches. Just a friendly photo page and tells the date.

I just looked at kj's website and nothing is mentioned there about closing. It would be nice to have more structure to fish. Keep us updated if you here more!

I have a friend that works for KJ's and they are getting ready for ice now. They will be operating this winter just a little further south on that lake frontage road. They will also be at the Ice Show this weekend.

Yes, I found out you can't swear on these posts...which consequently is the name of our fish house...I have to look closer at our guidelines! I guess I need to preview these things first! Just glad to be coming up with my buddy, Ice Hopper, (a.k.a. Lee the Cable Guy) for my first year on Mille Lacs. I look forward to meeting Jay and Amber, everyone around our WW ice village, catching a few fish, and drinking a few cocktails! Look for our DAM (N) FISH HOUSE...its the name given to our house by our wives for working on it so much! See you soon, ice is formin! Discowalleye

Just put our house on Kings Finger and will be up there all day Tues and Wednesday....Brandon and Amber were terrific yesterday in helping locate an area and get our house out quickly and efficiently. We walked over to our neighbor, Deb from Brooklyn Park, and she welcomed us to this area. She said she had already caught three walleye that afternoon and had a nice bite in the few minutes we visited with her! We look forward to meeting our other neighbors around us and having a good time with the Wilderness Warmth family!
