Ice fishing PSA

[nate01]

PSA #1. The beach at Budd Lake is all open water. Looks like they have some dock bubblers there so I’m not sure it’s ever going to freeze. There are other options like along Rt 46 and over by the castle but way less convenient

PSA #2. If you have a hand auger, don’t bother trying to sharpen the blades unless you really know what you’re doing. Before I put my stuff away last year I decided to sharpen the blades with some fine grit sandpaper because they were getting a little dull…Found out the hard way that was a bad idea and I am now rocking brand new blades
