Terry Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) well Monday I wanted to go fishing so I loaded up the truck and off I went to cooks bay just north of Bradford I ran into streamers, snow and wind, the roads were bad passed a few cars in the ditch, but on ward young man got to the lake the hut op was putting 2 huts on the edge of the ice the wind was blowing so hard I couldn't see anyone on the ice and could barely see the to marker bouys at the end of 89 so I chickened out and went home . <embed width="448" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://i25.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/DSCF3442.flv"> Tuesday was a bright new day and off I went again there were people on the ice and so I found a good spot and set up camp I got a bunch just jigging a little spoon with a berklys maggot on it once you walk out to where most of the snow stops the ice is pretty good about 6" of black ice I can't wait to do it again, next time with the skidoo maybe virginia beach getting ready <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view¤t=1a1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/1a1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> fish on <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view¤t=2s21.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/2s21.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> first one <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view¤t=2a1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/2a1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> more <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view¤t=3a1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/3a1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> and more <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view¤t=4s1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/4s1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> guess I got about 15 and let them all go I will keep some maybe next time Edited December 23, 2008 by Terry
Mike Pike Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) Man, do I ever have perch envy! Thanks for that Terry. Do you know which operator that was with a couple of huts out? Edited December 23, 2008 by Mike Pike
Terry Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Posted December 23, 2008 I don't know, I think maybe Peter..but the huts might be his office and stuff he puts just off shore virginia beach has huts out for perch...daves huts
Mike Pike Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Thanks for the info, Terry. Love your set-up btw. You look darn comfy out there. Don't ya just wish those moments could last forever!
Joey Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 That's great Terry. Can't wait to get out with you again this year Joey
danbo Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Well only 5' deep there so ya wouldn't disappear if ya went thru..
danc Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Looks like a fun way to spend the afternoon Terry..
Terry Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Posted December 23, 2008 Joey, hope we hook up a few times this winter danbo, if you look infront of the fishfinder you will see the transducer lying sideways on the ice, so the reading would not mean much....LOL fishing from 15 to 17 feet deep
TroutnMuskieHunter Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Nice to see that you were able to get out Terry!!...My turn is soon...after Dec 25th
Leecher Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Great report and pics Terry It sure is a great feeling after catching the first one Real nice setup you have Good job and thanks for sharing Leechman
Greencoachdog Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Real nice pics and good lookin' fish too!!! It still looks kinda cold though!
Streamerguy Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Nicely done terry adda boy...No gloves
irishfield Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 GREAT Stuff Terry !!! I never even thought... could have taken you with Leah and I yesterday and left you to fish all day on Temagami while we were at the funeral. We might have had trouble loading your frozen body back in the truck though.. as it was -22 to -27C throughout the day. lol
limeyangler Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Great stuff terry. I dont think you chickened out.....i've been there before and should've gone home.....i call that sensible....lol. BTW....like your fishfinder...i gots one of them thar units myself....pretty darn good piece of kit IMO. Thanks for sharing.... Simon. PS...i'm gonna have to try eating perch this year.
misfish Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Sure is a purty reel you got there. Pretty sure thats one of petes huts. I must say,I am very surprised to se a MANUAL auger.LOL Good on ya for getting out bud. I was told today not to think about anything but work. Here I was geting all my poop together for a few days of breaking the ice.
Terry Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Posted December 23, 2008 it was cold enough down this way, don't think I would have braved the cold yup my x67c works great, nice little unit up to 8" don't mind using a manual auger..after that go gas or go home...LOL I did have my 24v drill on it to cut them today...LOL just kidding
misfish Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 up to 8" don't mind using a manual auger..after that go gas or go home...LOL
jwl Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 nice going on the fish, it looks like you got them on a couple different baits too.
medmart Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 Good to see you got out Terry maybe we can hook up this year Rob
