icefisherman Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Well it is this time of the year again....white fish have been asking for me so I obliged and went to check them out. They didn't disappoint...what a kick start of the season....9/16 final score...a bit rusty but by next time should increase the icing ratio ;-) Good old Meegs lures did the trick as always...Amazing how fast I got surrounded by others....can't figure out how people find out so quickly I am catching fish and with no hesitation pile up on top of me....waooo.... We had dog with us today as seen on some of the pictures but some people noses worked better than the dog's ha ha ha. Anyhow, season started on the right foot...fresh whities for dinner...how could one ask for more. About 5" of good ice under us. Some spots by the shore was 2" though...so not ready for machines yet. Few shots for your viewing pleasure: Cheers, Ice Fisherman Edited January 12, 2015 by icefisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAW Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Very well done Sir!!! I think I am finally going to kick the old Williams to the curb, and start fishing with some of those Jigs. I know where I can steel a couple old originals.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icefisherman Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 NAW, I do have few Williams spoons in my tackle box but have not used them at all for the pat couple years. Only use them when I cannot get them on the Meegs. And I usually do get them on Meegs. Much more pleasant and faster way to fish. Once one figure the jigging action of the Meegs no need to bother with the Williams. Let me know if you need I can hook you up with James himself the maker of those lures. He just did a large batch...drying out as I write this. Shouldn't be a problem to get some directly from him. Cheers, Ice Fisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
