Well, Father and I took off up North Ice fishing.
Lakers
left at 2am Wed Morning.
Get there around 11:30 am on the Ice by 12:15, all the tiredness went away as soon as we seen the Ice.
Day 1. Sunshine, -10 , west wind at almost nothing
Drilled 6 holes grabbed a minnow threw it on the jig I had on my pole already and shoved it in the hole in 7 feet of water.
Dad didnt even have his line in the water yet.
Jig Jig Jig. Bam, fish on. dad hadnt even got his line in the water yet and he landed me this nice 4 lb 11 oz laker
a shot of our surroundings
Dads turn and not 5 minutes later
Dad's turn again. this was the big fish of the week-end at 7 pounds even and 28 inches, he was released along with most of the fish. we did keep 6 fish in 3 days.
I was a little rusty at landing fish thru the ice and we lost alot at the hole. The fish were there and we didnt sweat it.
Hey Look a nice little Whitie
a little laker. boy what a day
Another little laker
went back bbq some food. -27 that night
Day 2. Warm at -5, south wind at 15 km/h. fish still biting, we are about to have another great day.
Fish on. the old man strikes again
Action shot of dad and his home made jiggin rod in action

a nice 6 pounder for me.
Day 3 we only have an hour and a bit to fish. better get moving
dad gets a little whitie
I got this one, and dad got another one that the pic didnt turn out. not bad for a quick hour before we leave
Had an absolute blast, all fish were caught in 7-11 feet of water, 3 different days 3 different temps, wind directions and conditions and the fish still co-operated.
cheers every one
