Couldn't find the camera. So no pictures... sorry guys.
It was a slow day according to my guide. Of course, for the panfish I was probably using too heavy duty of a rod (medium). It took about 4 hrs to catch a limit for all of us. There was a bonus Largemouth Bass (about 1 1/2 pounds) caught toward the end of our time on the ice.
It was definitely fun!
Hopefully Sunday will allow me some time to hit a different lake closer to home and not too far from wherever my gal's family decides lunch is. I wanna test out my new hand auger and tip-up.
Hmmm, what should I go for with the tip-up? What live baits should I use?
(Shiners are hard to come by in this area.)
