steverowbotham Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Well the ice season has come and gone for me now. I was super excited for the 2010 ice season and the excitement never died for me. It was my inaugural season for guiding on the ice, and I would say it was very successful. Thank you to all who supported me and continue to support me over the years, to all that read my posts and follow my story. I'm going to take a couple weeks of personal time and smash some steelhead, then in a few weeks time I'll be back on the water guiding and fun fishing for perch, crappie and Kawartha pike. Should be a blast! I spent most of my season on the West side of Simcoe fishing Lefroy up to Hawkestone, depths changed every day, but my best depth for trout was around 91 feet and my best depth for perch was about 45ft. My top producers with season for perch were small jigging rapalas and a small scud bug fished on 2lbs test. Top producers for trout were the zonker jigs, laker takers and tubes, hands down. Enjoy some pics from the season. Thanks again for looking! fund day out for myself, getting a feed of perch first trout of the year, January 7th Mike with a beauty laker on the laker taker Outfished 4-3 by my fiancee test driving the zonker The famous white faces couple for the smoker tank caught by myself, bad pic A good day for the gumbos Another solid fish on the laker taker Love taking the old man out Nice one Some keepers for the ladies 4 hours work Sometimes I go for suckers of the deep nice whitie on the spoon 4 hours of productive fishing Good way to bond with the father-in-law No complaints One of hundreds released to swim another day board members do it best first 5 minutes Loved the hookset and cheers! awesome! headed home early with their limit brotherly love Great way to end the season Thanks again everyone, Tight lines!
