just to let everyone know
they are charging 10 bucks to park at Innisfil Beach Park
and from 6am on, there was a long line up to pay
I went else where, what can I say, I hate crowds and waiting in line
got out on the ice and set up
fishfinder, camera and lure down the hole
in 72 ft of water I could see whitefish swimming around but they would not touch my lure
jigging it they would not even turn to look at it. It was like the lure wasn't even there
I tried to record the fish but my recorder for the camera just would not work today, turned out to be the battery
anyways I couldn't get them to bite so I moved out deeper
as soon as I put the fishfinder transducer in the hole I marked lots of fish
minutes later after 3 bumps I had one on
I just got a look at it and off it went
I dropped the lure back down, the lure just hit the bottom and I had another one on
this one was iced and was kept for dinner
I had no real plans on keeping more but the next fish as I got it to the hole I could see the lure in it's mouth
it bumped the ice and the second set of hooks went in it's eye
it was bleeding like a ....never mind. I kept it
I put on a bigger lure and hoped to get a trout. but that didn't happen.
I kept getting whitefish..oh well, I played them real slow and reached in the hole to release them.
lost some from reeling slow
went 5 for 8 only the last one I got was snagged, the sure fight when they are, the rest of them had the lure in it's mouth
was a good day and the wife is happy. she has fish to eat
life is good...LOL
so just for Lloyd
I am not Terry
