Yeah can't wait to get fishing with you again Joe did you figure that little Lake out that you was wanting to figure out on the walleye
I am still working on it. Those Walleye can be tough to conquer for sure.

Thanks buddy! I went into physical therapy with a walker this morning and left with a cane. Can’t wait to see what tent you decide on! Go big or go home!

Is this the same Henry's Lake you guys fish?

Is it true that the season closes January 2 through Memorial Day? I can't see how icefishing could have a negative impact if you only get a month or so on the ice.

Yup, that's the place.  Yup, that's the season.  Careful studies have shown that the ice fishing doesn't have any significant negative impact.  If I remember right, the entire ice season catch is less than the Spring opening weekend.

It's a special place, worth a visit if you ever get the chance.

Hopefully I'll get out there one day. I have a friend near you in the Pocatello area, I need to visit and make a side trip.  ;D

I am getting excited boys!  As you guys know, I have been making jigs and plastics. I have in mind to put up some sort of a contest if you guys want to. The rules would be that one of your rods would be baited with my jig and plastic. Biggest fish caught throughout the trip would receive a special prize package put together by myself.  Anybody interested in such a thing? I will Make the prize a fun one for sure.  Also, a guy could increase his odds by Fishing more than one pole with my baits. Most of all, I think this would be fun for me to see which colors and sizes work best for those monster trout!

Thanks,

Thanks for being willing to participate in helping me out with my homemade tackle testing. I am excited to see which baits perform best so that we can dial them in from there for the future. Also, thanks to all of you for checking on my health condition. I really appreciate it. In the words of Nacho Libre, "I am doing good, really good!" I made some plastics today. I have been making them on the smaller side hoping that they work with the jaw jacker set ups. I poured some jigs as well and will be painting them tomorrow. I will try to get some funky ones done up especially for Chris! Looking through my old pictures, I saw one from last year that had me landing two fish at one time and it reminded me of what makes this trip such a fun experience. I will try to post some pics of the jigs tomorrow.
