Ice Fishing..I Just Don’t Get It

They say that if you don't like "something," it's because you don't understand it. For example, What's the deal with ice fishing?!! Does that look like fun to you?! That guy is freezing. His toes are probably ice cold. Dude, can't you wait for the warmer weather? Is your girlfriend that much of a pain in the ass that you have to spend four hours freezing your ass off as you drown your sorrows with some yellow fish and a bottle of Jack?!

Not to mention all the other "stuff" that could happen if the ice isn't frozen through enough. "Let's all drive our cars and pickups onto the ice. What could possibly go wrong?"

Dude, you mean to tell me that you went to the trouble of putting on all that winter clothing just to catch a puny fish that hardly anyone can see?!!

Thousands of people get together as a community for one ice fishing tournament after another......Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!!!! Nobody told me that bikini clad women were part of the ice fishing experience! So, where in the Danbury area can I buy all of the accoutrements to get started?
