Fantastic afternoon

Well, I had an afternoon to kill. Tried to convince the son to join me but he wimped out. Went down to the wall and broke up the ice enough to put a line out in 3-4 ft of water. First fish was in 5 minutes.

Great job Bruce.

Was there enough ice where you were and how is the ice down to the spot we catch those smelt each year? I'll be suprised if ice is good but who knows....maybe we should go get some crappie instead of smelt this winter?;-) Jordan was asking me about the smelt the other day so I though I should ask you....

 

Cheers,

Ice Fisherman

The ice I fished was 1/2" thick. There is no ice at the smelt hole so far.
