trapshooter Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Got out today since it wasn't -30 for a change. Still have to get runners on my trap so I'm not using it yet. Got to test out the new toy, Humminbird ICE45 flasher. Very impressed with it, to say the least. FYI - it is marking bottom but I think my reflection on the display prevented the camera from picking it up in the picture. We were on a lake that holds walleye, pike and perch. Almost right away my buddy Bryon had a good scrap with a pike. Turned out to be a nice 33" that we released without a picture. The walleye and perch moved in later in the afternoon and we managed a few of them. Here's my buddy Colin with a nice eye. My first walleye on the ice this season. We caught them on set lines and jigging spoons tipped with minnows. We were fishing a sand/weed flat in about 12-13FOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimace Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 Nice job. Whenever I take a picture of my flasher not all of the marks come up either. The lights turn on and off really fast so the camera will catch them in the off sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickOnt Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Ben I get the Red x thing where there should be pics of pick!!!! As to the runners for the trap I put them on my Yukon but after 2 years they were almost gone So i put a pair of old downhill skis on top of the Runners # years now and still good to go. If I was doing it again I would Not use the Runners BUT Go directly with the Downhill Skis!!! Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
