Yes, have a cabin up there, was out on Thursday, took the shack out about 12:30 drilled holes, put the camera down and there was a jack looking straight at it.  Was sitting on a site I call grassy knoll, lots of dead weeds around the area.  About 11-12 feet. Had no problem catching 5 jack, had to stop but could have caught double that, they were coming in 2 at a time.  No eyes... although had a good meal plus.  Oh they tasted so fresh.                         Check                                            Error

tried to post a picture but didn't work ???         

I forgot how to post a pic, anybody got any advice.

Took my grandsons out on the ice (6 and 7).  They caught 3 jack and one that got away with the hook.  Lots of fun and action. Cool outside but nice and toasty in the shack.
