I fished for tomcod a long time ago.  Sure, they bite and catching over a hundred of them is possible but it's not as much fun as I thought it would be.  These fish are not as great tasting either.  I guess with a good recipe....cooked with with lots of onions....deep dish style would be ok.

I much prefer ice fishing for other species of fish.  I do a lot of icefishing for smelt a couple of kilometers from my home.  Every once in a while, I catch a brook trout.
