Little snow and ice
I fish all winter and lots of days the boat is frozen to the trailer. But back into the water and it will thaw in a few minutes. Lots of days temps will not get above freezing. And will be in the Teens when I leave the ramp at first light. Lots of days you skim ice off the minnows if you leave the cooler open for long.
This pick was on reelfoot, high was a warm 21 degrees that way. Limit of fish from first light until this pic was taken and man it was cold.
Going in the am there calling for Temps to be around 12 degrees here on Pickwick. So will be sure to get a great pic of cold temps in the am.

It's not a crappie...I know, but it was cold for sure that day! Set up a battalion of tip ups for some monster pike and got into a master angler. The temps were in the single digits that day but it was a great day of fishing! It's great any day when you catch some trophy fish despite the frigid temps! The temp for the day was around 9° which was COLD! I think that an arctic armor suit would serve me well catching more trophy fish. Not only because they're warm and float, but because with the camo colored one you have up for grabs, the fish won't even see me coming!

Annual trip to Dale Hollow for bass fishing, got this one (the only fish for the day) on Thanksgiving Day 2013. Sunny but windy and quite cold. Temp was 26 when we returned to Wisdom Marina. Can really use some new cold weather gear, as someone liked the ones I was wearing and relieved me of them.... Yeep, someone took them from my truck.
Yes. That is my wife. And yes, It was cold. Also, we caught a few.........
We received 14 inches of snow in 6 hours and fished the entire time. We shoveled the boat three times during the process. The temp was 15 at the start and warmed up to 25 around noon. My cold weather gear consists of what you see in the pic which is not much.
Taking a kid fishing makes the world a better place one memory at a time.broz LIKED above post
It gets cold in SC too! This was last December. High this past Tuesday was 38 and today maybe 50s. I'd love to have the suit.

I need em cuz I'm too dumb to stay home and Cabin Fever almost takes me out every winter. This pic was taken at 26* and I just couldn't stay home any more!! The second was about 34* and the Smallies were Bitin!! Please help me get out more!!!
Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
- 10 , We have more days on the ice than in a boat
I found another picture that I wanted to upload to here. This was a great day on the ice! Was right around 30° and I got to snap a few sunset pics. A new set of Arctic Armor would definitely keep me warm on the ice and keep me safe if I ever do fall through. The floatation aspect of arctic armor is probably the main reason I'd want it. Safety is #1 when you're on the ice!
