I thought we were heading to a conclusion that Sven failed on the walleye but he did get a crappie.

There is an uninhabited island on Lake Courte Oreielles near Hayward now forever known as "Sock Island" after my dad forgot to pack the TP for the boat and he returned barefoot from an emergency stop some years ago.

Love the fishing tales.

I passed this story along to a friend who has his own ice fishing stories. He will love it.

OMG I laughed so hard I woke my husband.

I lived in a Wisc lake with cities of ice fishermen. The skating, iceboating....SO fun. Such fond memories.

Laughed until I woke up the dog. Thanks for this story and Sven and his Carharts will live on.

glad to know I'v got damn near a twin accomplice in Sven, except I was in a deer blind when things all went to s#*t. It was before first light, kinda tough to see what all is going on that time of day. I knew I should have gotten out of the blind first. We live and learn....if we're lucky!
