Wow the sun's out today!

[taxi1]

I think the sun has peeked out once for a minute in the last three weeks! Been cloudy and dreary for some time now! Anybody else notice?

That's because I went fishing.  Oh well, the sun felt great and I enjoyed my time out.  We got some nice gills.  The bass were annoying!

Very nice

Don't let Roeboat fool you. He keeps frozen whole gills from summer to post

 Sun is no good on shallow ice.

Nope, but it did feel good on my face.  Chad you don't have to share all my secrets buddy!

Well Roe, you should not have posted this picture of your top secret fish whistle to call those gills to your hole............get ready for all those questions now.

Jim doesn't even use a rod half the time . Uses that getup at hole and whispers sweet nothings at gills. Highly effective.

and there it is

Another tactic I like to use is peas.  Cut your hole in the ice, careful line the edge of the hole with peas.  When a fish comes to take a pee, smack him in the ice hole with the business end of your spud.  This tactic obviously only works on our thin ice region.

I will try to get some pics of this method in the coming weeks.  Be safe out there, we live in crazy times.
