Dark Cloud Posted December 18, 2009 Author Share Posted December 18, 2009 Tank and I just got back from an afternoon on the ice, and not much ice at that. He measured a 2.5, i'll call it 3 It wasnt cracking or popping but she was sagging a bit. Prety much non stop catching on 6 to 7 and a half ich gills with some around 8. I did wack 6 crappies also. Nothing to write home about but it was nice to soak a few fish towels and test some jigs n plastics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 First time out with the new runners. You can tell the bottom is slicker than snot. The trap wants to go ahead of you when your trying to pull it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icejig Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 DC, will the runners that you have work on the bottom of the new Kenai?Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderman Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Sammy,I think the base of the kenai is different than the pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Cloud Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 IceSammyJig - I do believe the base is different. But im sure something could be fabricated. If I remember right that base has many small ridges instead of two runners. So maybe a bunch of small strips or two wider strips would work?

Fishingking Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Snapped this nice photo the other morning when it was -1 out Finally found some time to get out on the ice today ended up catching a few nice fish for the first trip of the season. Fished 7:30-12:30 caught around 35 perch most were 3-7" only 3 were 10-11", 7 gills 8-9 1/2" and this guy @ 12" also lost a few which I probably wouldn't have lost if I had purchased one of those Quiverstick Ice Rods @ the show also anyone have a used flasher they are looking to sell?

Fishingking Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Tim did you fish all day and take a break for lunch? Same lake? Need a lake for Monday if your interested. Timmy read it says what times I fished yes same lake Someone turned the switch from on to off so I got the hell out of there. My fishing partner today didn't catch a single keeper. I rubbed it in how tasty those little buggers were tonight for dinner . I might have something for Monday I really need to work but i guess I could maybe take another day off we will see. I will let you know what I find out tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Guys dont be so fast to post all the details of your trips. Just take a look at how many lurkers there are on this site that contribute nothing. The phone is for details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Cloud Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 Guys Dont you mean just Timmy? It's kind of funny and it happens each year - all summer and fall we usually have 3-6 viewing, now that first ice is here we jump to 15-25.

ICEROD24 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Hey JayHappy HolidaysJust sent out 7 prototypes to Lynco Grinding in California for solid carbon blanks. Would like your input when I get samples back for field testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Tim Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Well I'll try to keep it tighter lipped on the reports and take a lot of downward angled shots like these from today. Really slow and very finicky Mr. Happy was today. I don't think anybody caught more than 4 crappies ea. Great fishing the morning with Bud and Tyler and it was a pleasure to meet Bruce. Jay your Kielbasa was a big hit and it went fast. The boys wanted to fish another lake because the action died off quick but the other lake those guys fished the ice went from the 6" of black on lake #1 to what Todd described as a bit over 2.5" of black on lake #2. So the ENY gang stayed on Lake #2 and we headed home. Wind was whipping good all morning and the wind chill made hole hopping near impossible. White Maki's MMMmmmmm...

Fishingking Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Nice Crappies guys Made it out from 2pm-5pm ended up with about 50 perch from 5-9" and 23 Keepers from 9-12" here's one of the nicer ones caught this afternoon. It was chilly out and windy. I brought the shanty but never set it up since the fishing was so fast and furious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pman Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Hooooray - finally have a working computer after about 3 months of sheer aggravation. CNY congrats on some nice specs, white maki did you say? King I see you're up to your old tricks once again. Impressive yellow right there. Twenty three keepers is a banner day. Looking forward to icing some fish with both of you this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Cloud Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 Tank and I checked out a new lake today and she should be ready in a day or two. Then we went up the pond for about 45 minutes. The fish were super picky but we picked a few. Tank got two in that 10 inch class... Picts dont do them justice, they have that neat irridecent purple on thier sides... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris you can have your hopper back it's cool. You did put a bug in Jon's ear and I think if we had a bit more time .. I can always bother you for it again when I do an instore.
