Finally got to ice fish lake fairlee, the lake i grew up open water fishing for over 20 years. I set up around 10 and fished til about 2 on friday. It was a lot of fun. I took my fiance with me and she did pretty good, landing and unhooking her own fish. I set up in about 10-16 feet. I should have been a little deeper i think. we only caught pickerel. Still it was a great day! tons of flags and about 12 pickerel. We also jigged up a few pickerel. I wanted other types of fish, but I cant complain because the action never stoped. Im dying to get up to my cabin to fish it one more time this season.
Heres my camp! love this place
