youngvedder Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Hey guys, had a bit of an opportunity to make it up to bala and was able to get in a bit of ice fishing. Although we didnt catch anything, i was able to introdce my girlfriend to the sport and get her accustomed to the requirements....she loved it and is hoping to go back out soon. Ice was extremely deep under a good 1.5 feet of snow. had to use a chainsaw and it took the entire blade, plus a shove at the bottom to get all the way through it...I as quite surprised. here is our only real pic of our spot. http://www.flickr.com/photos/youngvedder/3209034823/ Was also able to test out the Humminbird 565 portable. it was easy to use, worked well, and also gave a temp which I didnt know it would do! cheers, Yv
johnnyb Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Sweet deal -- and a bonus that your g/f is still keen after a skunking I've driven past Medora a bunch of times, but never fished it...do you fish it through the year, or was this a first time?
youngvedder Posted January 21, 2009 Author Report Posted January 21, 2009 been fishing a few times....my buddies place has several of his trophies on the wall....several sml and largies 5+ pnds and a few nice pike. One in particular was 14+.... so not bad I would say! Cheers, Yv
johnnyb Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Shoot! Not too bad at all So pike are the only target through the ice?
youngvedder Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Posted January 22, 2009 i believe so...didnt have any luck with pans...but to be honest, i didnt ask. next time ill find out! cheers, Yv
