Nip Weekend #5

Made it out for my 5th weekend on Nipissing. Season is fast drawing to a close. One more 2 day trip planned for the closer with a couple of guys on here coming up. My original plan was to head up Friday than fish Saturday, Sunday and head home Monday. The storm on Friday night caused me to shift my plans by one day to head up Saturday and fish Today (Sunday) and Monday (tomorrow) than head home Tuesday.

Was just a gorgeous day with temps around +4 or 5, very little wind and sunshine. No slush anywhere just a perfect 3 inches of snow on the ice to make for by far the nicest riding conditions of the season yet. Given the perfect conditions i decided to ride out to the Goose Islands which are basically smack dab in the middle of the lake and 30 km from where i get on the ice. Did not not bother with the shelter today as conditions were just too nice and was great to sit in the sun:

The fishing was average with 7 or 8 walleye all in the 14 inch range and the odd perch thrown in:
