First time on the ice this year

  This Weekend my brother and I spent about 9 hours on the ice fishing for sunfish and crappies and turned out ok with 17 sunnies 2 crappies and a perch. It was the first time I got the ice house out and worked great.  

New shotgun (Stoeger M3000)

Today (Black Friday) after getting together with the family for a late thanksgiving meal my family and I eased over to fleet farm to check out an early Christmas present. And within Half an hour we walked out with this brand new Stoeger M3000 12 gauge. I've wanted a upgrade from the 20 gauge I have for a while and this lower end gun (lower price for a semi auto) with good reviews was perfect since I don't do a lot of shotgun hunting but would like to do it more often.
