PB best 15" perch, having it mounted, and first tiger musky thru the ice.  Great year!  Hopefully the weather will hold for a couple more weekends.

No PBs for me either, I spent less time than usual fishing but it has been one of the best years we have had recently for the ice.

This winter was a personal best all in all for me...I had only ice fished 3 times before this year with my cousin (he owned the auger) so I bought my own Jan 1 weekend....... burned through my first set of chinese made blades, bought my first set of replacement sweedish blades....... went every weekend (usually alone)....not only did I pull my first winter fish up through a hole I drilled, so far I caught 56 keeper perch, 1 24" Northern, and 1 18" pickerel......My personal best ever winter, and not only am I hooked on ice fishing, next year I'll have my first shanty, and 3 more tip downs (made my first 2 this year...) thanks to the advise of this site, and my own intrigue to continue to fish on the coldest of days I have enough fish to fry up on Fridays on this season of Lent.......with hopefully another weekend or two left to go...
