3/24 Pikemaster789's LSC and cottage pannies pg 7
« on: Dec 19, 2006, 05:14 AM »
The dad and I decided to put the row boat in the water and try some icefishing tactics in the open water. We used icefishing rods, and my make shift tip-up was a slip bobber rig baited with a bluegill :tipup: We headed out with the oars and a trolling motor.



on our way out we found out the battery was almost dead, so we oared the rest of the way. The wind was blowing in strong so we pushed ourselves to the edge of the ice and it held us there like an anchor.



the beloved rockbass was the first caught by my dad

some of my gills




then we ran into trouble, as we were pushing ourselved out of the ice, our already injured oar broke  :o


my dad got on shore and walked home to get the truck. about a 1/2 mile away or so.

I went 2 of 3 for pike on the slip bobber rig

this one came in at 25"


hunting wise, I aced my first bow-squirrel. I was proud of this one

most of the ice was skim  but we ran into a few places with a half inch

I ended up using 4 bluegills through the course of the day, lost a pike on a 4" gill, lost a fish on a 3.5" gill. landed a 22" pike on a 7" gill :o, and landed the 25" pike on a 4"gill

Nice job pikemaster, making me jealous! I want catch some pike, I'm jonesin' bad!! It been a while.....

I was hoping my practive shooting squirrels would help deer hunting. Now if I can just get a deer in shooting range.

And in strange valleys greet strange deaths alone;

The mysteries that shroud the Polar Zone.

Was out a little bit this week and the pike action was very slow. Did manage to get one here at 30.5" real heavy fight. Still waiting for that monster. Pannies wernt cooperating either, they were few and far between but I think it was the weather.
