"Hard Water Fishing"
« on: January 18, 2010, 07:10:23 PM »
Haven't been online much.  Things have been hectic for me, so I haven't had much free time.  Got a chance to chase a few fish in the hard water.  We had a blast.  Kept a few to fry up!  Unfortunately a predicted warm up and rain may end things. 



I have a tough time getting Sherri to fish when it is warm but she loves to ice fish.  She doesn't have to spend time getting untangled in the trees!!!



Enjoy the winter!

I've always heard that was a blast, but I've been afraid to do it. 

Now be honest, did you go "in" after any of the fish?  ROTFLMBO

Mike,

 Fish don't seem to have the same brain deadening effect as turkeys... *fall* *fall*

Mike,
We had 5-7" on most bodies of water.  I was amazed that it deteriorated that quickly.  When we left the ice Sunday it was cracking everywhere and had thinned to 2.5" in some places.  Quickest I ever remember us losing safe ice in January without a substantial rain.

Ted,

That looks like a ball. My wife would enjoy that also.
