Personal Best! Part Two

So, I went out with Mitchell Meyers on a private pond and had another amazing outing. Breaking another personal best. We had been fishing a hot spot with several 9 to 10 inch gills on the ice. The fish had stopped coming through so we decided to try another spot. We sat focused on a few fish coming through. It seemed like a ping-pong game. I would see them and then a minute later Mitchell would see them. We landed a few small bass when I noticed a huge red mark on the LX-5.....yeah, I can't afford one of those fancy new LCD flashers yet. It stuck around for a while then.....WACK! It was a fighter for sure. We still didn't have any snow on top of the ice at this point. I could see what looked like a hub cap going in circles under the ice. The fish broke through into my world with line wrapped around the ducer. Man, what a fish. I reached for it and pulled it safely onto the ice. The 2 days.....2 personal bests. I like it!

Nice! That's a bull gill. Every time I have one of those on I think, damn, another large mouth. Until I see the fat pig come up the hole and then my jaw drops... Well done!

Ha! This would be an opportune time for someone to insert the "that's what she said" line. Unless you're fishing for some big guys...

I left that wide open for a home run .... Chickens. It's been a tough start to the new season but the fish have been nice. Keep fishing.
