    Default Iced slabs


    Got out for 3 hours this afternoon and managed to score some quality fish.Had to drill a boatload of holes to find them but once I did they were nice.Heres a few pics.


    A nice smally

    Slabs








    Nice seed


    Biggest gil for me this season.Not bad for a couple hours work.A few more went back down the hole.I deemed them not picture worthy!! Lost a couple nice ones at the hole also because I tried to horse em in.Patience is key when getting big slabs through the hole.Live and learn.

    Nice slabs!

    I cant seem to find the crappie this winter. I caught a few here and there.

    I have been catching a lot of nice 13" to 15" yellow perch...so I keep at it!

    We are about out of ice, but I'll keep going till' its time to launch the boat!

    The majority of them were 15' down in 19' of water.The two biggest crappies were only about 6' under the ice and attacked my lures as soon as it came near them.

    Crappies were tough to find yesterday on a small lake but the perch and gils were biting really good so it all worked out I guess.
