Hi everyone!
Been having a issue with getting on here and after talking to the site admin. and my computer guru it has been narrowed down to my router.For some reason I cannot log on to this forum going through the router so right now I'm hooked directly onto the internet.And get this I have no problems logging onto other forums,only fishusa forums!The router I have has no range at all so I was thinking of getting a better one and now I have this to really make it a no brainer.
Have fun on the ice guys I hope you get the big ones....and stay safe out there!

It's great to hear your outta hibernation.. Computers are the curse of many but such tools they can be..ugh..
Almost time for you to make the leap to the big fish on the short pole.. We are going to dial them in for ya and all in the next 3-4 weeks.. Now or never ole' buddy, and never say never..lol
Maybe , hopefully some pic's next week will do the trick.. Did I remind you there is heat , unlike standing on the banks of a frosty river..
As of which, I just typed about never but it's tough to drag me butt up there stream/river.. Hopefully it opens another spot for fellow fishers and they share their adventures..
Sure do appreciate the weather and local conditions because I will say , ya never know when I may wipe some dust off..
 
  

Well I may be out of touch for a couple days as I am going to unhook the direct line to the internet and go back to the wireless but I shall return to see what you tempt me with your pictures Rich.....really hope you hit them

If those pics get posted up you may need to find room for another in your shanty rj :)

Ok Db, get those boots out.. but by the looks of things this week, maybe a shovel too.. ugh..
So yesterdays adventure was absolutely AWESOME !!! We didn't set the world on fire but iced 6 , lost about the same and had countless fish chase our lure trying to get them to bite.. Good thing snaggers aren't allowed on the ice..lol
We started the day in the pitch dark thinking that the place was going to be Packed.. Wrong, we were the only ones out there, well besides some ice skaters :)
Here is us trekking into the unknown under the cover of darknss .. that was NUTS !!

 
We came to and crossed this pressure ridge in the dark, I took this pic on the way back in:

 
First up was my buddy Brian ( I asked permission to share his foto)  who was the hot rod and when I would hook up , so would he. We had a few doubles:

 
I got on board with a couple shorts, they must be 23' to keep.. Mine all seemed 22 3/4 " lol



All of Brians seemed to be WELL over 23" with this 26+" fatty


All fish released ..
 
Finally, Take a good look at the ice because after the big snow we are expecting it will not be an easy drag again out there :(

 
P.S.
All my fish were caught on bucktail jigs I tied from a deer we shot this fall.. Nothing is better then using your own materials :)
 
 
 
 

Awesome... Absolutely awesome!!!

Great trip

Awesome man, I will not even share the pic of my one crappy fish (really it was a crappy). Bite is absolutely horrible on the pond. Oneida is calling my name for Ext weekend unless I hear the bite it on up there.

And many more, HT.....

Back on line to take a look at the Lakers,very nice! That ridge looks a little hairy to be navigating in the dark,but then I'm sure you know what your doing out there.
Have n't had the time to shop for a GOOD router yet so I'll have to play this game until I do.
