MCTFisher9120 Posted January 7, 2011 Report Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Hey guys, the report is picture shy today but had one of my better trips out on the ice today. Fished a lake off of Lake Ontario with my buddy GoneFishin from sun up until 4ish today. Managed one pike right off the hop then got only a few strikes but made a move to some perch water just after 11am. Here's the Pike, a little guy but a start. This was my 3rd trip out...bout time I got something with teeth Once we moved we fished live minnows off of bottom, pretty self explanatory. Here are my 2 biggest of the day, a both just barely under 12" with a pinched tail once thawed out and home. Until next weekend thanks for viewing, in total I probably managed about 8 or so perch, many in the 7-9 inch range with 1 dinker. Rick managed a half dozen perch towards the end, just didn't see the size today. Bite was tough. Tightlines, MTBF Edited January 8, 2011 by MikeTheBassFisher
BillM Posted January 7, 2011 Report Posted January 7, 2011 Nice fish Mike!! But if you are going out on early season dicey ice, you really should think about a floater suit..
MCTFisher9120 Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Posted January 7, 2011 Nice fish Mike!! But if you are going out on early season dicey ice, you really should think about a floater suit.. Ice is 9.5" thick at our furthest spot...I'm not a early season guy, only been out 3 times. Earliest was around the same ice thickness.
Rod Caster Posted January 8, 2011 Report Posted January 8, 2011 Getting up early is the best way to enjoy a full day..
limeyangler Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 Great report Mike! Lol..i just finished reading you 'rant' post. I saw this post yesterday and it was on my to do list tonight to reply. I dont think i have ever got on the ice before sun up like your pic with the Pike...good job... i always plan to but then i forget the minnows/wallet/etc.... pick up smokes from the tackle shop...get chatting...etc...etc... You have inspired me to try and accomplish that feat this season!
Leecher Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 Hope I wasn't to harsh on you with my reply on your rant thread I used to get up early like that but now I got to wait for my daughter and don't mind one bit Great report as usual Mike Keep it up dude!!! Leechman
