This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Saturday Fishing Report

Post by Redhead »

Went out yesterday to a new lake.

I have to say, this was the cleanest lake I have ever seen. When sitting in the hut it was like ice fishing in Barbados. With my black hut the light comming through the ice was magnificent.
Image

Was in about 15' of water, and it was so clear it was almost as if you could reach out and touch the bottom.
Image

Pulled up a couple decent size perch and a couple T's.

Got hungry so decided to rig up the 2007 ghetto BBQ. 8)

Image

Egg rolls, zucchini sticks oh my..... all in all I had one of the best times on the ice this year. Will be back to this location very soon. This being one of my first reports and many more to come.

Great report! That perch looks giant...

Were you jigging with that xrap? or did you just put it in the photo to give an idea of the size of the fish?

Oh my god! That perch you're two-handing is a monster! Don't mind seeing a slab like that every-so-often. Nice healthy looking fish. Keep the reports coming.
