still fishing
« on: Mar 21, 2016, 06:06 PM »
I was not quite ready to put my stuff away yet, so we headed up to Delmoe lake yesterday.  We took a side by side, but there were people up there with pickups.  The ice was 20" and the conditions were awesome.  Two of us caught approx. 20 fish in 4 hours.  What an awesome day to be on the ice on the first day of Spring!  If you are not ready to quite ice fishing just yet, give it a try!

Went back to Delmoe one last time.  The edges were open, but we had an amazing day pulling out around fifty nice cuts in just a few hours.  My buddy and i took our 4 year old daughters and they had a blast.  We baited a lot of hooks,and they reeled in a ton of fish!  Didn't hurt that it was 60 degrees.  Great way to end the season!
