Another fish I love to catch thru the ice-damn what fish DON'T I love to catch-is perch. I entered this one early on in the season; didn't think it'd hold all winter, but it did! 13 1/4" ! Not my biggest perch-that was a 15" white-but solid! Jigged her up on a flame orange 1/64 th jighead w/ handtied copper tinsel-tipped w/a glo-minno from cto!

Careful that you don't jinx yourself...people have until Friday the 15th to bring in their entries.  Good luck!

Saw that happen last year in the bass category. Whether or not it works as "rest on your laurels" strategy, who knows. Real fishermen fish regardless.
Kapt and I can only get out so often, so hitting a winning fish happens, or it doesn't. La lotteria mi amigo. I won't forget to enter next year.

Fingers crossed for you icechaser, good luck. Maybe we'll get to meet on the ice next season. Those are some great looking jigs, tons of shine on them. Really like the gold tinsel ones on the upper right. Bet those would work good casting live shiners for panfish too.
