icefisherman Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 After quick recovery from Saturday punishment today was a breeze. Friend gave me and the boys ride on his snowmobile and what a difference it makes when you travel as a human to your spot instead of barely get there all exhausted. Even the -32 degrees didn't scare us. Coldest ever fishing day for me. We were counting on two heaters and two huts. For some reason the Mr. Heater I bought from a guy in Barrie couple weeks ago didn't want to start in the morning. Tried it over 100 times...in the beginning the pilot light was coming up but didn't want to fire up after that...when trying to light it up on low the pilot kept extinguishing....later on even the pilot didn't want to start... if anyone knows if those things can be repaired please let me know how to fix it...otherwise will need to go in the garbage. Paid $70 for it and only lasted 2 trips...... not happy with it...who knows why the guy sold it to me... The other heater in my buddy's hut worked fine so kids were kept comfy all morning. In the meantime I kept moving around drilling holes and barely marking any fish...the kids/buddy's hut though was marking from time to time...and slowly started getting them on the ice...Eventually I gave up on my scouting operation and went in their hut to warm up and get few whities myself. Had to work very hard for the last fish but eventually ended up with 4 limits and about 10 other bumps we missed. Toughest bite I had on the ice this season. We really had to work for them...only singles showing up and not always biting...well not every day is the same...Meegs again did all the damage but had to really fines the presentation, change tubes, lure size etc. Kids were happy, reeled in some fish was nice and sunny and even warmed up to about -15 when living. Not a bad way to spend family day.... Whities are in the brine waiting for the smoker in next couple days weather permitting. Few shots from the day: Cheers, Ice Fisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 Good job. Its been a tough year for me compared to the last 5. They dont seem to want the williams and rapalas i usually do well on. How are you working the Meegs? Tap bottom, slowly lift up and then drop back down when you mark fish?
