back lake brook trout, Ice Fishing report!

[chris.brock]

this could be the first hard water report of the season for OFC?

 

1.15 kms as the crow flies, from my truck to the lake, I can't fly so I'm guessing I hiked double that distance, around bogs, hills and thick bush,

 

 

 

I broke a sweat hiking, not good on a cold, windy day, I was happy to find 4 to 6 inches of good ice, here's a Trout Junkie tip up waiting for a bite

 

 

 

It was quiet for the first hour, then the bite turned on, 4 to 8 feet of water was where the action was

 

 

 

 

I tried to use the timer on my camera to photo some of the bigger specimens

 

 

 

there was some good battles bringing in these feisty brookies on a hand line

 

 

 

 

A nice afternoon, worth the effort

I was going to say second report but first one that fish were actually caught.

NICE! I have never fished for them but I'm sure they would be a blast; with a reel or by hand line to bring them up.

thanks Moosebunk, it was fun to see the tip-ups bouncing again

 

Well done Chris !!!! Some nice back lake brookies man !!!!

 

thanks Shawn, if you ever want to take a break from sleddin', we should do some ice fishing

I remember reading you were thinking of going out this weekend, I guess the conditions messed that up

 

 

 

Dood…we better get our act together and start 'reprezentin'

 

If I lived up where you guys do, I wouldn't bother with the brookies when you've got walleye like you guys have

[Bernie]

Hey Chris, I think I seen that tip up move in the first picture. Go for it!!!

[Tim Mills]
