A great story for sure! Look him up, RIP. He sure sounds like he would get along great with you. I'd love to see people's reactions when he pulls on their lines and scares the crud outta them. hehe

Default Clancy is a Hoot!

You have to admire the way he stuck to his guns. At least they know what happened to their uncle now, though it makes you wonder how the guy wound up in an icefishing hut at the bottom of the lake in the first place??

Cheers,

BDA

Good story Rip. Kind of creepy hanging that up in front of his business but to each his own. Glad that they figured out who it was...Buster...
