Well the day was almost a wash, because of the high winds but me and ONE friend headed out - (three people bailed on us).
5:30am Sat Feb 18th
I go to load the truck up and 5-6 snaps break off my tonneau cover and some of the vinyl spiderwebbed and cracked off.
5:50-6:00am hit franks for some suckers
they only have 3!
7:30 arrive at the lake. We walk out about 400 yards or so - 2 pop cans freeze and burst, the minnow bucket almost frooze solid. Crap it was cold!
We did get 4 pike.
It was so cold I set the tip-up up inside. LOL

Then Jeff almost got keeper - maybe was never measured just tossed it back.
