so i went to chester field for the first time today i didnt get there until late because i woke up late and a buddy of mine told me that 24 mile res. is another name for chesterfield well he was wrong i drove right past it and started up to 24 mile. on the way to 24 mile i was wondering why there was only one set of tire tracks in the snow. anyways after i made a dicovery in the fishing regs we back tracked too chesterfield. we got set up at 1:00 pm in about 20 feet of water got in the hut my buddy dropped a pink paddle bug tipped with a little piece of crawler and i dropped a green with gold flake paddle bug 2 minutes later my buddy hooks and ices a nice 16 inch bow that was released. 2 minutes after that i land a 20 inch bow that i kept. about 5 minutes later my buddy lands another one around 16 that was released. about another 5 minutes and boom i land a 19 incher that i keep so im done. then about another five minutes my buddy lands a 19 incher. then they got smart we sat for another hour my buddy missing a whole bunch of bites and hooking and loosing a few fish then my buddy decided he didnt need his last fish so we packed up and headed home. the bight was so fast in the middle of the afternoon i think i just found my new favorite ice fishing grounds. i am in a wicked hurry so i will post some pictures of the fish later tonight! GO PADDLE BUGS!
