Decent day out

Managed to make it out with a buddy today and we made our way as far out of the way as we could given the time. We arrived a bit late but it didn't take long for the lines to start bobbing. Lots of bites but the fish seemed finicky. Ended the day with 3 keepers and 5 or 6 stockers left for another year.

Good weather, 6 inches of ice over a creek outlet and enough snow to get me huffing while dashing to the holes.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8c8ab3f5e6.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...021cf38ca5.jpg

Nice fish. You'd need a boat down here...lol

Really? Seems to be holding at a foot thickness where there's no current around these parts. Its about to get nasty with slush though.

Always a decent day when you can put those on the ice... One of my favorites to fish for. Taste ain't that bad either...

These ones taste like swimming hunks of butter! There's a number of lakes here i won't fish because they take on a muddy flavor.

I was out yesterday to a bay close to my house, that is attached to Lake Ontario . Lots of skaters close to shore, but a couple of fishermen out a little further on about 4 inches of ice, open water 100 yards away. They had a couple of pike on the ice, the biggest about 30 inches long, very skinny , not much weight. 10 feet of water and dead minnows under a bobber is what they used.
