We had a cold start to the morning up-north and the power augers were a bit stubborn getting underway as they needed a bit more warm-up than usual but once hot they ripped and ripped well. Didn't have to drill to many holes as it was anyway we caught sunfish all day long very rarely were there more tanna few minutes passed before there would be 1 to 5 sunnies below. I soaked a large fish towel and had a good time catching and releasing, sunnies, gills, crappies, rock bass and largemouth. Todd lost about a 25" walleye at the hole and landed about the same size pickerel. We packed it up about 1:50 p.m. and called the slaughter off. If I was keeping fish I would have had 25 nice sunnies to fillet so all in all a very good day on the ice.

Great fishing with you too again and I'm looking forward to fishing with Jay, Beth, Doug and Lilly tomorrow. Here are some pics an Tuzzy had the hot hole for big gills early...

You know it was cold when Tuzzy had to break out the pre WWII ski mask laugh

Didn't matter what you used today as the creek runoff is murking the water up good and the fish were aggressive pretty much all day.

Great fishing with all you fishers this afternoon. Tank, Billy, Jay, Beth, Lee, Frank, Cindy and Doug. A amnda and I had a great time and she caught plenty of perch. Conditions didn't permit much socializing beyond talking trap to trap but Amanda caught alot of fish while we were there. We had some nicer perch but she wanted a picture with this little guy.

You gotta love kids... I wanted to move to one more spot earlier but when I released that sunfish in the hole a drop of water splashed back up and caught amanda right in the mouth. And then it came from the mouths of babes...

"Dad let's stick to the perch they don't splash whe you put em back down the hole." Nuff said laugh

Jay - Amanda did have an ear infection, Rosa got back from the doctors and she's on anti-biotics. She's looking forward to the next time we go fishing. Have to get her some better gloves before the next trip.
