Hi. My name is Chris and I'm going to start (gulp) ice fishing. I tell myself that it is just an excuse to fly somewhere to do something. But, really, I want to catch some burbot. So, this is the year that I will finally put my plane on skis. I have had them for two years but because of modifications that I needed to make, I haven't been able to put the skis on. This year, everything is in perfect alignment...and it is going to happen. A friend has offered to let me park my plane on Lake Hood (right in front of their cabins so I will have electricity). The plane is ready to go.
Watch the Lake Hood Webcam...you might even see me take-off:

Now, I just have to head to the sporting goods store and stock up on supplies. Let's see, I need a little ice fishing rod, some tackle, and an ice auger.
I'll post more when I actually get out there...really. I promise. You won't want to miss the excitement!
