Hits Shepards lake today..fearing that the warm-up this holiday weekend will completely fizzle away the ice..got on the ice and heard the great sound of Thumping and Gurgling..Knowing the ice was thin..decided to just jig..did the first hole and within 5 minutes hooked up with a 24" 3.2lb bow on a rat finkee tipped with mealie worm..come on cold weather!!!
