first fish of the year!
« on: Dec 08, 2008, 12:25 PM »
went out to a new fishing hole on saturday, drilled a hole close to shore to check the ice, pull up on the auger and out comes a bluegill.  ive never caught a fish with my auger before.  it was only about 2 inches long. thought id share that. college can be boring i guess nuthyn better to do rite now than tell this exciting story. tight lines

If I ever have a muskrat come out of my hole I would probably whip him to death with my rod.......and then go home and get some new drawers

My dad told me a story of one time when him and his brother went icefising for brookes n browns on a small lake, he said that he cut a hole with a spud bar and there was 6 inches of ice and when he dropped the bait down he could see a swarm of trout some of which followed the biat up to the opening of the hole
Theres only 3 seasons..open water, hunting and icefishing!
