Getting ready for ice fishing season

[dubob]

Curt,

Too early for me to even think about ice fishing.  I still have 2 months of duck hunting to attend to.  See you on the ice in January.  

Dont forget to chase a grouse, Bob. That way you will have somthing actually worth eating

While I agree that grouse are very close to being the best eating game bird there is, it ain't happnin' CP.  The only upland hunting I do at my age and physical abilities is on preserves with level ground and I've never found a preserve that offers grouse as a choice.  And I can cook waterfowl meat such that you would be salivating and begging for more.
