Fair enough Longfish, I do see what you mean. I honestly was just trying to start up constructive convo. When I first started out I’d drill half holes to stick my auger in and stuff like that. I honestly didn’t know what the right answer was back then, but I drilled them through, and confirmed my answer the first time I stepped in one not drilled through lol. I come in peace, no attack was meant guys, cheers.

Making something as simple as a spring loaded toilet paper roller with pointy ends would do.

Couldn’t agree more, and the same people will be asking for spots or what others are using in a couple weeks time. Lol
For the most part I don’t bother with a response to the ones who start unnecessary drama, theirs enough in the world already. Lol
Sometimes it’s always fun to jiggle the worm in front of them though, always guaranteed a bite from one in the peanut gallery at some point 😜

Looking forward to sharing some posts this year, and hopefully others won’t stop posting because of the negativity.
Tight lines ladies and gents

Back to the subject, how is the ice holding up on St John after the rain?
