The start
It,s has been serving me well the past few weekends, getting me my whities. My confidence is through the roof with this bait now. I have heard and seen it will catch lakers as well. This, I had yet to conquor.
That was until, this morning. First lets get the whitie out of the way. Yup, nailed one the first 5 minutes. In the well it went for adinner for me bud and his mrs,s.
Back down goes the meegs. Theres a fish on the graph zipping around. Big marks from this one. I keep moving the jig up 3 ft or so, smash it back on the bottom and repeat. Then as Im lifting, the mark makes a beeline for the jig. Fish on. At first I thought it was a good whitie. Then it decided to make a run and another run and yet another run. Ok, not a whitie. A 15 minute battle, with a 46" R-TYPE ice rod,loaded with 10 pound Nanofil and a 4 ft leader of P-Line floro clear, joined only by a uni to uni knot.
Get it to the boat,me bud nets it up. Inhaled the meegs
Can only amagine the battle if it had a whole tail. Not sure what happen to it.
My first on the meegs and biggest on a ice rod. A quick pic and back it went to the depths to rest and yet play with another angler some day.
Both fish onboard just before 6am. The rest of the morning we washed spoons. LOL
If the rain holds off, I,ll be out on the toon in the AM.
