joonmoon Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 My wife and I had booked a hut with Kerry (Scugog ice huts) for Sat. After the storm we had Fri wasn't sure if we were gonna make it or not but it finished and blew across Ont with just enuff time to clean it up before we left Sat morn. Got to Scugog and loaded up his sled and taxi'd to our home for the day by 1pm. A warm four-man hut to ourselves...sweet. Within minutes we were icing dink perch with the odd keeper. Warmin up to the eve bite for walleye. When the sun set and the witching hour was upon us we were ready. The eye bite was slow, at one point I noticed my line and minnow twitched differently then it had been, I slowly lifted the rod out of the holder and felt weight, gave it a few seconds more and slammed the hook home. We were fishing in 6-8' right on top of a weedbed so I wanted to get it up quik so as not to wrap in the weeds and lose em as I did earlier with a decent perch. Just as it popped out of the hole the hook let go with a panic and a lightning quik reflex I had my first Scugog Walleye on the ice...Yippeee. A couple more hours of nothing and we called it a day. Plan to eat em up yum for snaks later today....yummmmm.
tjsa Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Nice perch, walleye is good also, makes for a nice feed for sure, congrats on you're first Scucog walleye.
bbog Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Nice work guys! I hope to make my first foray out on the ice this month.
irishfield Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.. now when's supper?
Big Cliff Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 WTG you two! As usual it looks and sounds like you had a wonderful time!
jediangler Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 Great report brother Joonmoon. Nice catch Goog. I'm very glad you two decided to treat us with your bacon wrapped walleye and perch morsels, done on the BBQ, at Ma & Pa's place last night. Best Superbowl snacks I have ever had. Mmm, mmm...GOOD.
ccmtcanada Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 Wow....all these Scugog reports with fish pictures in them...I tell ya, I just dont believe it...LOL. Great job...Kerry runs a good operation...maybe I'll have to try again this winter.
Rizzo Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 nice looking perch! Didn't know they made jumbos down there
joonmoon Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Posted February 6, 2008 Yup Kerry is good I highly recommend him to all. We had a blast and ya Bro gotta say that the snaks were better than the superbowl itself, well until the second half anyways...lol. Sorry bout yur Pats, oh well been there before with the Bills so suk it up...lol. Hope this rain freezes up and we get out again for a few more eyes yet this winter. You should join us for a day on the hard water...
joonmoon Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Posted February 6, 2008 WTG you two! As usual it looks and sounds like you had a wonderful time! Hey Cliff, we always have a good time no matter where we go or what we're doin...especially when we come to yur neck of the woods.
Big Cliff Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 Well, I sure hope you two are planning a few trips up here again this year, Andy misses you! I'm going to install the Aqua-view in the boat this year and perhaps we can figure out how to nail a few more of those sly walleye. The door is always open and you two are welcome anytime!
