Hey I've ice fished before, when I lived in Florida use to take the boat out on Tampa bay it was great find my spot toss the anchor out ( just remember to tie the other end of the line to your boat) kick back pop a top and relax but what the hardest part was trying to figure out how to keep the ice cube on your hook.
Well, THAT'S where "thinking ahead" comes in handy: First, you've gotta fill your ice tray, as normal... Now, carefully lean an appropriate sized hook into the "corners" (only 1 per "pocket", now) of each pocket of the ice tray. Freezem. Problem SOLVED!!
