Photoz Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Well, Beansie, Cliff & I hit beautiful Lake 'X' way y y y y out east & north of the civilized world at about 06:30. Crappyperchhunter did his punishment yesterday at Sibbalds, he didn't wish to suffer further! Other than a few small things, like . . . a foot of snow on top of 6" of slop, a cold wind about 20 klicks, and the cold front shutting the fish right down, we had the time of our lives! Cliff's in love . . . with his new FL8SE . . . now he can find the fish suspended about 15' off bottom . . . still hasn't fingered out how to get 'em to bite. (You need an FL20 to get THAT feature!) Although I quite like the new FL20 Ultra, it AIN'T worth $250.00 more than the FL8SE . . . a few more useful features, but you don't really need 'em. I'd say the FL8SE is much better bang for the buck. Score . . . I got 2 - 5" perch . . . Cliff got a 10" crappie . . . and Beansie gave it his best, but decided he wouldn't want to hurt the poor l'il fishies, and fished without a hook. I can hardly wait for another go at 'em!

crappieperchhunter Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Sorry I passed guys...but I was just too burnt out from Afternoon shift all week and then getting up way to early yesterday to chase perch on Simcoe....not to mention the 2 times I shoveled the driveway yesterday I left all my gear in the car overnight.....just in case....but my rear end never slid outta bed until 10 this morning. Happy to hear Cliff likes his new toy. I know the previous owner looked after it well At least you had good company, and the fish will still be there for next time.

kingofthesteelhead Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Maybe you guys should try sleeping in and do the afternoon bite at that particular lake.My nephew does well there most afternoons from 300 til dark. I was out near crappieperchunter on Saturday. I did not walk out as far as that was the worst walk out this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
