Fishing is easy. Catching is the hard part.

Congrats. I get skunked kind of often when going for lakers but they are my favorite to target through the ice. You gotta pay to play. The reward is amazing.

Once you start referring to them as togue they start jumping out of the holes

True story, I was sitting on a pond in cape cod a couple years ago jigging for trout in 5ft of water and a rainbow jumped out onto the ice through one of the other holes I cut
