Ice Fishing adventure Pics

[vancouvercanuck]

On our way up ice fishing, nice sunrise, didn't quite get the moose fully exposed.



This is around 9 a.m., sun is up, Rocky Mountains to the west



Here is the famous Jam Jam, notice what happens to your face when you let the scope on your rifle hit you in the nose. First perch of the year too.



Pic of Alpinehigh baiting his hook I think.



And here is the so so sunset looking west to the Rockies.

And for those of you who want to know who Vancouvercanuck is, sorry no pic of me ice fishing yet. Jam Jam has one though.

I'm thinkin' that perch goes at least 5lbs!!!  Even I never realized how big it was at the time  

I'll try to get those pics scanned Van.

Dosen't Jam Jam have a domanit eye, (LOL) the dent should be over one of the eyes not in the middle He He bet he missed.
Nice sunrise and avatar. Was that the moose on the right side of the pict.

Wow you are a great photographer van. Nice scenery shots.
I just dont understand why you took a shot of me setting up a line and no pic of the first  and my walleye of the season. oh well.

I thought those cuts on jam jam's face was from the struggle he had with a grizzly over that perch?

[Jam_Jam]

Yes yes the grizzly that was it.

Man I looked beat up  Wouldn't you know it...I take my first two deer with two shots...go back to the range to sight in for next year and bam...now I know not to get complacent next time!  I felt better knowing another guy did the exact same thing while I was there that day...I think we both felt better LOL...as we whiped the blood from our faces and chuckled.  Sheesh

Jam Jam,
It always happens at the range....I work in a gun shop and see it all the time during our shotgun season. On the bench you tend to hunch further forward than you do shooting off hand.
I'd work on that grizzley story!
Nice photos anyway.
