To get out of a funk I've been in over the recent passing of a family member, I decided to get out and meet Rich this morning for a wee bit for an 'eye fish. I missed a heavy fish early on and then got blanked at the hole by another. Rich however was on fire and ended up with about a half dozen 'eyes, his best being this one that he had a hard time turning at the hole... the assist goes to Jazman for getting the ice skimmer down in time to turn him. This fish had some terrible growths on the side opposite of what's in the pic

My apologies to Silversam, it was a last minute decision to go out and I didn't want to phone ya at 6am. Hope to meet up with ya if you're ever back in town.
