D I remember my first time too.

For those of you that do fish, here are a couple from the weekend that Rezeyes and I hooked up. Sorry spilled a little coffee on them. Gonna take the ole man out this weekend and try a little spearing. Carved and weighted up a decoy last night. Time for a little paint this evening. I'm not really sure which day were are headed out but the Mooter Posse is roll

I believe it was a Rock Bass. You'll have to check with GameDog or Jiggy.

Whats up Moot?? Just made a gallon of 120 octane BEEZASS?? Where you been? Miss ya all and give yer old lady a squeeze from me!! You guys should get up here sometime, plenty of room and only an hour or so from Tiber, Pishken, Frances, Holter, and lots more!! You going to make it or the gorge or Boysen for the derbies??

Careful with that stuff pioneer MT. That will make you steal stuff you already own.

We miss you too. I just bought another house and were closing at the end of January so the funds are getting a little tight. I would love to head up there at least once this season. i'll have to keep you posted and schedule something. Dad and I are getting into spearing pike thanks to Rezeye's influence. He bought a really nice Spear on eBay last night

and I hooked up with one a couple weeks ago (thanks Brandon). This spearing sport looks like a blast and a more interactive way for my kids to see fish in their environment. Give me a holler next time you in town.

How deep of water do you guys spear in?

doublehaul · « **Reply #68 on:** Dec 29, 2010, 02:56 PM »

5-15 feet. You got to get pretty good to drop a spear at 15 ft. deep. My buddy tried at 17 1/2 feet in clear water one day. He had a toad come through, but missed. all depends on water clarity and what kind of structure you like to spear. I might not be the one to ask, I've only been like a dozen times. It's one more aspect of ice fishing to obsess about.

minnowguy · « **Reply #69 on:** Dec 29, 2010, 03:17 PM »

How big of a hole do you usually cut?

doublehaul · « **Reply #70 on:** Dec 29, 2010, 03:49 PM »

I have a 9 inch auger. 3 holes tall by 4 holes wide. Ice tongs are a very usefull tool.

I would like to set up in one of the quick fish 6's and make a long hole and then every body can spear would be great fun

Thanks for the info doublehaul I will have to stop at rockymountain sports in Sheridan when I come through and see it they have any spears might be fun to give it a try.

Hit TRR today it was slow! Didn't hear of many people doing any better. Heard of one 30 inch walleye being caught but that was about it.

Seedtree · « **Reply #77 on:** Jan 02, 2011, 09:09 PM »

I tried TRR for a while until the wind and blowing snow made me decide to go watch football. Caught some perch. Quite a few people out, including some brave people driving around with their trucks on the ice. Made me feel alot better about riding my ATV!

rodrunner · « **Reply #78 on:** Jan 08, 2011, 06:01 PM »

Fishing has been really slow at TRR gamedog

rezeye · « **Reply #79 on:** Jan 09, 2011, 11:39 AM »

hkdup told me some of people are driving on it he might be there today ice was pushing 16 inches at castle rock and various other ponds last weekend but i dont know what the rain did to the ice but this cold spell should firm it up if the rain did do anything at all to the ice

fishjunkie · « **Reply #80 on:** Jan 09, 2011, 08:32 PM »

Let's see these decoy's Moot!! I know Rezeye has had his hand at building a few.
How is the spearing in Tounge? Decent water clarity?

Mooter?
Is that short for moose cooter......or canoe full of moose meat?

Bullelk34 · « **Reply #83 on:** Jan 12, 2011, 10:52 AM »

Fishjunkie-

Usually fish minnows on tipups and tiny minnows or maggots on your jig pole for crappie and perch. I haven't fished it in a few years but rattlesnake point was always good to me.

stickandstring · « **Reply #84 on:** Jan 12, 2011, 02:23 PM »

Any report on the crappie bite at the tongue lately?

Seedtree · « **Reply #85 on:** Jan 12, 2011, 07:55 PM »

Any reports of the minnow/bait vending machine at the marina? How much do the minnows cost and how big are they? Are they live minnows? Are there maggots or waxies? Any info is appreciated.

eyewinder · « **Reply #86 on:** Jan 13, 2011, 10:43 AM »

I believe there are meal worms and nightcrawlers, but no waxworms--at least that's what I think I saw while peering through the glass with my aged eyes.

stickandstring · « **Reply #87 on:** Jan 13, 2011, 10:58 AM »

I saw meal worms and crawlers in the machine. We got a container full of minnows and they were very lively to my surprise. They actually gave us 16 or so instead of a dozen which was nice. They are just your average fatheads as far as size goes. Its certainly better than no minnows at all!

Bullelk34 · « **Reply #88 on:** Jan 13, 2011, 12:24 PM »

OK- you guys are saying there is a vending machine at TRR that dispenses live minnows? Are you messing with us? I've seen one up here in Helena for worms, but minnows?

stickandstring · « **Reply #89 on:** Jan 13, 2011, 12:28 PM »

No Joke! I thought it sounded a little goofy too! But it works.
