Cp's Ice Trips and Pics
« on: Dec 18, 2009, 06:13 PM »
I think this year I'm going to keep all of my trip reports and pics all on one thread that way I can keep track of it.

Fish today on a sold 3 inches of clear ice.

My vex would read right through the ice it was kind of cool!

Caught a lot of dinks once again but I did finally bring a few home!  ;D

First one I caught while I was out.


This nice big crack split open when I was drilling this hole!  :o


First keeper of the year! Not a monster but definitely an eater!  8)


Caught this little walleye this afternoon too.


Here was what I brought home. As I type this there getting fried up!!!  ;D ;D ;D

Fished again today with a little bit better success. Caught some bigger fish today and more of them. The were right on bottom I was barely marking them on my vex.

Sorry the pics are kinda dark and fuzzy there off my cell phone. My cameras broke!  :-\

#1 rule when fishing - STAY HYDRATED!


Caught a quite a few dink perch this size today. Where the big ones!


Brought home 15 keepers today.

It stayed right at 32 all day. For a while it snowing but it was coming down more like rain if that makes any sense at all. It was like hail but it wasnt ice it was snow.

Made it out today and finally did really well. I caught my limit. I took me quite a while but I got a lot of bigger fish today. I fished with SquirrelHunterJay for a while and and showed him how its done!  ;D Yes I know theres 30 he gave me his five after we left.

Fish all came on green and yellow diamond jig with a single spike. I was fishing in 15 feet of water and ropping it all the way to the bottom and jigging the fish up.

Caught a couple crapppies today. This was the biggest one.


The never ending dink perch...


That was a lot of fish to clean.


Got some nice gills today.


The 4 crappies I caught.
