First rule of ice fishing shanty prostitution club is don't talk about ice fishing shanty prostitution club...

He’s totally delusional about the effects of ice fishing and projects his interest with prostitution. Yep, people probably voted for him, but he seems off his rocker.
The video was interesting because it reminded me how a person who dresses in a nice suit and tie and wears a lapel pin is often taking seriously when they can be just as crazy as a homeless man having a conversation with a park bench.

Maybe he has some first hand experience about ice fishing in a shanty with a prostitute, after all he is a politician.

He said something about reporting on ice fishing and prostitution in his past career as a reporter. When questioned about when and where that happened, he wouldn't answer. Make your own conclusions from that.

Anyway, the only people to ever come knocking on my shanty door were my wife and kid wanting to know what I wanted for dinner, since it obviously wasn't going to be fish!

Forgot to ask how many prostitutes drowned?

I guess in the interest of fairness, I should ask how many John's drowned as well?

 

[cqaigy2]

Ha ha, can't forget the John's.

So is it illegal to offer it for sale, or to purchase?

I think both. Can't offer it for sale, and can't ask how much it costs.

Working at the local newspaper for 30 years, I got to see a lot of stories on prostitution from all angles. Heck, we even had a former madam go to school, get her degree in journalism, and become a reporter. She was loved by the community, because she could relate to peoples' circumstances and tell their story with fairness and compassion. More of a columnist than a reporter, but she did her share of strait news pieces as well.

Got to go last night. Probably the last time for the year, as while there was 10-11" of good ice yesterday, it's darn near 50 degrees today, windy, same for tomorrow with rain. A lake that was similar yesterday already has a couple inches of water on it today. Oh well, at least I got to go 4 times this year. Didn't get to go to my childhood lake for only the 2nd time in the past 50ish years. No safe ice.

Here's a picture of one of my favorite things to do (no prostitute jokes please).

Ice fishing, February 15, 2022.
About 8:05pm.
Air temp 32 degrees.
Wind 15-20mph.
Small lake in La Porte Co, In.
Warm and toasty in my flannel lined jeans, t-shirt, carhart coveralls, Striker floating ice fishing jacket, felt liner waterproof boot. No gloves. Didn't need them. I just reach into the holes to clear the ice or grab a loose fish. Air dried them real fast.

4 bluegill and one crappie. Enough for dinner for my wife and I later in the week.

March 7, 2019. Last time out for that year.

Friend of mine (a known local prostitute) and I were (OK no he's not), walking off the lake and I turned around and told him to stop and look at the sunset. We stood there for a while, and I told him to stay there while I took the picture.

I call it a metaphor for old men looking back and contemplating their life.

We're getting older and the sun is setting.

He really liked that picture, so he had it printed out and framed for his den.

I don't blame him.

Still waiting for the picture of the prostitute !

 

[Xfaxman]

I hate ice fishing, by the time I get the hole chopped big enough to put the boat in, I'm too tired to fish!

 

[groundcover]

And when you cook up the ice that you caught it makes a pretty thin soup !

 

[MossRoad]

Weird 2 days fishing. Yesterday, it was 13F. The fish froze as soon as you put them on the ice. Solid in half an hour. Had to thaw them out to clean them.



24 hours later, 47F. Caught 35, kept 12. Threw this bass back, as I was in Michigan today and it's out of season. Put up a fun fight on the little ice fishing rig.

.

What a beautiful day! Geese and sandhill cranes all afternoon. Some swans, too.
The sandhills never migrated this year. It's been too warm and not much snow cover, so apparently they're finding plenty to eat.

Still 11" of good ice. Supposed to be warm for 3 days, but it might freeze back up by next weekend. If not, the few times I got to go this season were all enjoyable.

I'm not following how you can say it's been too warm with 11" of ice. I talked to a guy the other day and he said this has been one of the better ice fishing seasons.
