Yes it has been 2 years since I have been icefishing. 2 years ago,a back operation,last year triple buypass. Got to go Friday and Saturday on Lake Onalaska. First bite(broke off) 2nd was 12in. Perch. Caught a lot of perch and some real nice bass. With the help of my son Mike. I am disabled,and you do not know how much I enjoyed this trip. Been a long time waiting to get back on the ice. This was a great time,looking forward to going,every weekend for the next 2 months. Thanks to a son that I use to take when he was 3 and now 27,he takes me. Jerry
