Alright so A friend that lives a few hours north hits me up and says " Are you ready to come get some splake??" Me " When do I come down? " So I headed down Sunday and it was nice and warm but made for a lot of slush on the lake! Thanks god he had a skidoo because the walk in would of taken all day ! We get to his lake x for first light!
What a beautiful place!!
We set up and drop down some holes and instant action! Everybody is landing fish but me as I just cannot set the hook but we did decide to start small and work our way to the bigger ones! Finally I brake my splake curse and bring up my very first one! Not the biggest but puts a big smile on my ugly face!
Then the lake slows down..... So i take my time wonder around checking depth and structure and I end up back with the little group. Start jigging and whack this guys hammers it and gives me a decent fight!
Adrenalin is pumping and we all head back to jigging! 20 minutes goes by and a big red bar appears under my lure!! Took a bit of playing with him but got him to hit and this guy hit! He was a bit bigger and gave me one hell of a run!
What a great day it was !! The grin says it all!
Tight lines all and stay safe on the ice if there is any left
