I am very excited for ice fishing....because I've never done it! So what does a guy need to go ice fishing anyway? Are any bodies of water that we would legally fish in the summer fair game in the winter?

5 tilts or 4 tilts and a jigging rod,depth sounder,Sled, hand auger/power auger/chisel and your good to go.
Most waters work just as well in winter as summer.
I'll give ya all info needed but you can also go to www.iceshanty.com
this is a great ice fishing site. Guys are secretive mostly about their pike but all in all good guys.
Let me know if you have any other questions. I'd like to think i can help in this area.

I have wanted to catch my own golden for a while and haven't done it yet. Small hook and worm?

OH I AM READY FOR THE ICE! There are no dimwhits on jet skis, tubes and ski boats. Just dimwhits on 4 wheelers, sleds, and feet.

I agree with Ted....whiskey is a must out there on the ice! Jay covered the essentials and yes I'm excited for a solid couple months on the hard water. Bring a golf club and a few balls for ice golf too....it's a blast! I'll be hosting a boone tourney for sure!

Can't wait for Boone ice derby!
Hope I can attend!
