Super User rippin-lips Posted January 22, 2015 Super User Posted January 22, 2015 Ok now thats a bummer, eastern MD is completely different weather than the west. Only had a mild ice over that lasted 2 days on the ponds, the rivers are cold but still soft water. I'm even in Western Md so it's colder up this way. Buddies went ice fishing last Sunday. It measured 5" thick. Quote
Super User rippin-lips Posted January 22, 2015 Super User Posted January 22, 2015 What setup did you end up going with?7'11 okuma guide select heavyCardiff 301 #20 cxx bunch of different baits that were recommended Quote
KritterGitter Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I'm even in Western Md so it's colder up this way. Buddies went ice fishing last Sunday. It measured 5" thick. No thank you! I dealt with that for 24yrs in western PA. 7'11 okuma guide select heavy Cardiff 301 #20 cxx bunch of different baits that were recommended Nice, yea Im lucky enough to get a okuma guide select SB rod from a nice guy here (buzzed bait!! thanks again) Nice rod but Its rating is a lil low as the BBZ1 is its limit but it works great for the Hudds 68's and savage line thrus. Running the same reel you got but with big game 20#, although Im looking into other lines with a lil less stretch. Good luck to ya come thaw out. 1 Quote
Super User senile1 Posted January 23, 2015 Super User Posted January 23, 2015 Sales start tomorrow morning @ 9am pacific time. Very limited number available. Retailers won't get them until later in the summer. I want one but not getting up @ 6am to order one. It will be noon on the east coast at 9 am pacific time. I assume you are east coast since you favor the Potomac river. It is easy to get that backwards sometimes. Quote
Super User senile1 Posted January 23, 2015 Super User Posted January 23, 2015 Whoops. Looks like someone already caught it. Sorry. Quote

Last time it was hardgills that went up for sale when I was in there. Well I will be on the side of a mountain laying in a frozen hole and welding broken pipeline with a snowcat, excavator, generator, compressor and who knows what other machines running. It is easy to not notice what time it is when you're working like that and directing a crew, hence the alarm I WISH I was still going to be asleep haha Quote

Last time it was hardgills that went up for sale when I was in there. Haha yeah when I get up this morning I was like "ohhh wait a second".. and went to log on to post that it is at Noon, but luckily you guys beat me to it. The thought of a new Huddleston got our brains caught in a mosh. Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted January 23, 2015 Super User Posted January 23, 2015 LOL, good luck. I can tell you from experience, prepare for a server crash. The first time he released 68s all hell broke loose. I can see it happening with this as well. I think I'm going to sit this one out. My days of bait chasing and F5ing went out the door with the 316 craze. 1 Quote

einscodek Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Been looking for a weedless version of the softgill with the ability to cruise slow. if it cruises like the 68 does.. this looks to be the ticket Quote
