well, got out today with Bowen and did a little hard water fishing... my first real trip on the ice. what a day, the action was non-stop... heart pounding, arm tiring hauling up all them hawgs... lol. weather was great, water clarity was only about 3 feet. headed out to a lake that had good ice cover for the most part... ice thickness was 4-5" all around us. fished about 8-10' of water on top of a small patch of weeds. between the 2 of us we had well over 100 fish, most were bluegill, couple pumpkinseeds, a perch in there as well. perch was caught on a minnow, the rest on live wax worms. few others joined us later in the day, and they got in to some fish as well, perch, bluegill and crappie. nothing with real size to them, and some REAL little dinks in the mix, but it was a fun day, and i;m now hooked after gettin my first hard water fish, i gotta get out somemore. gotta thank fishmaster for the equipment i was using, worked great.
