[@mairwaugus5203]

Uh duh its got holes

[@fire_fux]

It does look like a slotted ladle or skimmer that I use when cooking. But context would definitely tell me 1. We are on ice, fire is probably a no go. 2. Why would we have soup with no fire and no cook pot. 3. Why would we have soup. Ergo no its not a soup ladle.

So if I get this straight, Midwesterners are the nicest most polite people on earth, but mess with their ice fishing and they will loose their shit... Boy I love these people 😂😂

[@clairewyndham1971]

Everyone has a threshold. We ice fish. We have ice "shanties"..we escape from a lot of stuff by ice fishing. Haven't you seen "Grumpy old men"? Yes, It was Minnesota..our neighbor. We ALL do it!

[@aarondsalberg]

It’s not just Midwesterners and ice fishing. Mess with a man’s sport or hobby on that level anywhere and I’d question a man who didn’t lose their stuff.

I took a guy from California across a lake in a car he didnt even know it until we were half way across and I told him. His window went down and seatbelt off so fast it looked like a deer in the headlights

[@DennisMartinezCalifornia]

Our lakes don't freeze so we get scared ok 😤😂😭😭

[@ettaex]

My sister got lost, but saw the lake and knew we lived by one of the boat landings so she drove out on the lake. Her boyfriend was from California, he panicked and thought she was crazy. Then a few days later to and from church my dad took a short cut. . .across the lake. And that day was more busy with a ton of cars on the lake. Pointing out all the card and trucks either parked or driving on the lake didn’t reassure him it was safe.

[@carolinepersons4260]

😂😂😂 My dad did this with the exchange student we hosted from Venezuela, after she SPECIFICALLY asked him to warn her just before we drove out. Twenty years later, she was the one laughing her head off at the story, telling her husband when we came to visit. Good memories!

[@XcRunner1031]

Yeah, in California we are straight up told to never go out on the ice. Very few places in the state get that cold for a long enough time to be anything more than a death trap. Stories and videos of people or pets falling through are not uncommon. I didn't even dream of setting foot on a frozen lake until I moved to Eastern WA, and discovered I couldn't really fish year-round unless I went ice-fishing...

[@smokescreen100]

My first time ice fishing was with my grandparents and I was like 7. Me and my brother got some mike and ikes and we dropped em into the hole. The fish thought they were bugs and just went for em like crazy. Got a crazy amount of fish. I can't remember how many but it filled up one of those buckets so it was a lot.

When I was a patrol deputy in northwest Wisconsin, I took a ride- along on the ice to patrol the shanty town that developed. That kid looked nervous too. Normal day in "up north" winter patrol. I always wondered what dispatch thought when they saw my GPS in the middle of our biggest lake

I am a little late to the party, by three years, but this reminded me of my brothers and my husband. My husband is not that inept, but he is a talker, and a hugger, whereas we are not. It took decades, but my brothers actually hug him back now.... Of course, it could be that they're just trying to squeeze the air out of him.

How to tell it's time for ice fishing without ever having the go out on the ice yourself? Check your local Country Store for waxworms/ waxxies and bam there ya go. And if you're lucky they'll sometimes give you an extra container knowing the dead waxxies will be used as suet feed for the birds.
