And you were expecting perch or something ?:16suspect :evil::lol:

Fished SANG this morning and met up with Tinmarine. Getting to think there really is a trend when he's on the ice.:nono: Got one and turned it loose.
Finally waddled off the ice(felt like a duck) around 11:30.............the sled left a wake behind me.:rolleyes: Highlight of the morning was the lightening and thunder.:yikes: Fog rolled in as I hit the wall. About a 3 inch gap at the wall. Just a heads-up for anyone thinkin of hitting it tomorrow. Ice is any where from 4 to 6 inches. Watch them open drain holes if you slopping around out there.:16suspect Thinkin I'm gonna hang up my jigs for the season.(maybe):16suspect:evil:
