manitoubass2 Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 Went out last week to 8", lots of snow and slush. Not safe enough near the current to bring out the kids. Shoveled te snow off and had good cold days since:) ventured down this am after coffee, drilled my way out with my new shark and made it 30-40 ft out with 11". So out we go to play with some fishies and new toys:) my new auger is amazing, love it. Got it on the cheap too$175 used once. Now im anxious to try my brand new 4x elite:) weather is nice, bout -13 should br diwn there all day! Letshope the fish cooperate but will be fun regardless.
i2cool2fool Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 That sounds awesome and the making for a great time!
manitoubass2 Posted December 21, 2013 Author Report Posted December 21, 2013 One walleye and a few misses so far. The elite took a while to set up but shes working great now!

manitoubass2 Posted December 21, 2013 Author Report Posted December 21, 2013 Touched up! What an awesome day. Loving my elite 4x. . Caught about 12 in all. Some big eyes and pike. Action was good enough that we missed some pics just being too busy. Great first day on hardwater

limeyangler Posted December 21, 2013 Report Posted December 21, 2013 Awesome Rick, hows the current there on the ice? i can see you are sitting in that part that is an eddy with slack water…but i seem to remember the current rips through the rapids there. That is where you are right?
manitoubass2 Posted December 21, 2013 Author Report Posted December 21, 2013 Awesome Rick, hows the current there on the ice? i can see you are sitting in that part that is an eddy with slack waterbut i seem to remember the current rips through the rapids there. That is where you are right? there is current, pretty heavy actually, but of to my right is where i caught that bigger walleye, that was right in the eddie. Ice is great though, no slush came up at all, and the water was insanely clear so no fluctuations in water levels
manitoubass2 Posted December 21, 2013 Author Report Posted December 21, 2013 YEAH BABY..Rainy River SUSHI !lol ate that fish raw hahaha
wormdunker Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 Good on ya! You are in God's country!
manitoubass2 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Posted December 22, 2013 And yeah we were drilling on some heavy current. 11" of real good ice though. Nobody dared to venture bear the rapids, we stayed 100 yards or so away
