Gordie Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 good i just checked mine 2 dead already. How do you keep them alive. I usally only buy 1 0r 2 and leave them at the lake in a net. i have no luck in a bucket. I ussally keep them in a big cooler with a fish tank airater and change water every coulpe of days or just add some snow . I also have O2 tank that I fill a plastic bag like at the bait store works really good. will check them before bed and probally add more O2.Sorry to here that some of you guys are not going to make it. I am still planning on bringing brownnies (no nutz) and can wait to try those beans of big roys. do we need any plates or tableware??

Huey Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I just packed a couple bags of chips, ketchup, and paper towels. The cajun brats are ready to go too. No folding table. Sorry. My wife took it to work. Sorry you guys can't go. Should be a nice day for spearing. Bigslugger- Maybe you could just you drop those brownies off? Frosting and all, they sound tasty. Bobberdown- I'll be on Big marine or Square next weekend, if you want to go spearing. My buddy can't go either so there's an open seat in my house. That's if anyone is still awake to read this.

bassNspear Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 Today is the day!Going to be a nice day on the hard water!Will bring photos and reports tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 Final Report from the Spearing Get Together on Long LakeWhat a amazing day to be out on the lake! The weather today was out of control. You didnt even have to have the heater on after 11:00. The day started alittle rocky when pink floyd lost my ice saw, but he used his smart fishing skills, and got the saw back to me. I was happy to have a great friend of mine Deitz Dittrich, to come and hang out with me in my house. We only seen one pike all day, but i was having a great time watching him SET THE HOOK and the pan fish! He was getting monster fish, weren't ya Deitz. We did get to see something that was very rare on the ice. A tractor. Thank God there was enough ice!It was great to have the gang out on the hard water again today. The food was out of control, thanks for everyone for bring the food. The bear dogs were out of control, awesome pickeled fish, baked beans, and of course the Brownies with no nutz!As a group, we saw some fish. Thanks to everyone that had come to the get together. This one was special, becuase of the miles that people traveled to get to the lake. Miles were travled to come and hang out.Look forward to hosting 2 again next year!

shamalex72 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Sounds like you all had a great time. Any pike get speared? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huey Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I had a good time. It was nice to put faces to posting names. Lunch was awesome. Spearing was slow, but I broke out a jig stick and put the hurt on the 5" bluegills and a 15" pike. I think everyone contributed prizes or food. Thanks everyone. I was glad to Laska and BigRoy (if I remember right) walk away with new ice saws. Congrats to Elwood on winning the green hornet with a 5 lb pike. Your my hero.

Fish Toys Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 It sure looks like you guys had a great time and Mother Nature cooperated for you. Nice pike elwood! Sounds like there were two winners of Icesaws. Whose idea was it to put all the fishing gear together? Took a little bit to figure it out. All you people are welcome. Hopefully next season there will be more people and nice weather. I just wish it wasn’t so darn far for me to travel to one of the GTG’s. Will there be more pictures?
