NoCo Icing Pannies 07-Dec-2019

Questionable ice but I needed to fish so I hit up the neighborhood retention pond this morning predawn! I caught and released 6 species this morning including gills, green sunfish, bluegill/green sunfish hybrid, yellow perch, crappie and a couple of chunky bass...Attachment 361425Attachment 361426Attachment 361427Attachment 361428Attachment 361429Attachment 361430Attachment 361431Attachment 361432Attachment 361433Attachment 361434Attachment 361435Attachment 361436

Looks like you had a blast

Sounds like a good time! No ice fishing going on in Arkansas. It looks like those reels are attached to the rods with rubber bands? Is that an ice fishing thing?

Probably zipties, that's what I use.

They are actually held on with castration rings, common on ice rods, because most rod handles are too short for a regular reel seat.

I’m not sure what “predawn” means, but that was a good catch. That ice looks cold!
