Mike, thanks for posting your hard water adventures..... was a great read and welcome to ice fishing Not easy to be limited to an 8" inch hole but somewhat rewarding when you can get into some. I admire your persistence and trying new things.... you certainly got rewarded big time when you got the skunk off your shoulders that was a couple of beauty lakers congrats Looking forward to your steel reports!!! Jacques

No a black bear..... with the mild temps thus far, might have prematurely awaken some of them

Ya should of changed lures TJ..... it wasn't interested enough for a strike but pretty cool to watch Leechman

I'm guessing here..... but could be bear if you left meat outside but pretty hard to ID. Leechman

That is just a beautiful scenery Terry I love the little cub with the mama bear on the fallen tree I can see some salmons right in the foreground near them!!! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work Jacques

Great report and pics Hauki Never caught burbot before but looks like you guys had some fun catching those!!! Great job and thanks for taking the time to post and share with us Leechman

Thanks troutboy!!!

I know Mike and truly enjoy reading your adventures on the river banks..... Keep up the great work

Awesome footage TJ Aggressive fish for sure Did you eventually get a hook up with it?? Leechman

Thoughts and prayers are with you Nanook..... good luck to you. Leechman

Right on COPPER Hope your lady get's well soon!!! Leechman

Here we go..... the solo pose Been a while since I've seen you holding steel Mike.... real nice ones Congrats

Great job Dave Awesome looking butt cap!!!

It's been an early melt for us too up here Bruce the Ottawa River is wide open and the lake will follow soon for sure...... I can't wait for trout opener now Jacques

Some good looking ones in those pics Congrats superdad Got to love fishing on softwater at this time of year Great job to both of you!!! Leechman

Thanks Terry!!! Yes it's a lot of work..... going on day 4 now and tonight decided to take a break from it.

You're too much :lol: Thanks Shore_Lunch!!! Thanks Doug!!! The start of the game is from the blue ring where you see 2 arrows pointing in their respective directions, double skunk in the black and yellow as dots and skunk in the red and green rings. The end is in the red in between the 2 arrows pointing at each other. Certainly not your traditional looking layout but that's what I was inspired doing when I first started working on the pattern I don't think I will add any numbers to it but will add some additional touches in the final 10% of this work Will keep you posted on that

I'm also very sorry to hear of your friend's passing Randy and deeply touched by your gesture..... got to be the toughest thing a person can do in that situation. Please accept my deepest condolences. Jacques

Sounds like you have the situation under control Congrats Cliff and good luck to you Leechman
