Rainbow slimer 11.0”
Tony Grove Lake
Sorry forgot placard on one photo but thought other was 11” but later it looked short so took a picture of the next one that shows the full 11”.

Way to get us primed!

Probably the smallest fish to hit this category all year, but I about got blanked last year for bows so I took one when I could. I need to take what I can, when I can this year, it’s too easy to get shut out in some categories. Like I never found a descent pan fish last year so I need to work hard on that category. Oh the fun has begun. Hope to see yours on the board soon. Later J

It's looking like I may not get out until my antlerless hunt ends on Dec. 9. But that's still a decently early start and the ice may be safer by then.

Always fun to hunt too so can’t complain about that. Good luck. J

Nice assortment. That's why I joined the challenge. I'm fairly new to the game and have only caught some trout and a few perch along the way.
[signature]
Way to go! And I could have been with you.... I got all excited for about half a second when I looked at your first picture and saw that you got a 28" bluegill [
].
[signature]
I’m glad you like that going for variety, that’s why I love it too. Takes me out of my slimer rut and gets me looking for other stuff. Nothing big yet but a fun mix anyway. Think anyone will enter a perch smaller than that one? Good luck and have fun. J
[signature]
Not sure about a smaller perch, but I entered an itty bitty bass today. First ever large mouth for me, hard or soft water.
[signature]
You’ll be happy with that bass they aren’t easy through the ice. Nice job! J
[signature]
Hey I need you to score my fish. I like that 28” blue gill. Wish you could have made it. Was a fun trip. Later J
[signature]
Thanks. If nothing else, it will add to my species count
[signature]
Sure will plus a bump in the bass class. One of these days Ron will put out the scores and that bass will help you for sure. Later J
[signature]
I have little hope of winning the challenge. I'm only hoping to add a new species or upgrade previous ones each trip I make. So far so good.
[signature]
I think that is the formula for winning, just keep working at it and all of a sudden you're a contender... and if not you're having a lot of fun anyway... good luck... J
[signature]
I'm with you on the goals. Plus, I'm going to be "pushed" to fish new places [sly]. Hope I see you on the ice sometime.
[signature]
No doubt new waters and techniques are in my future. Time to put Skunk's formula into practice. Looking at one of your recent pictures, I better keep an eye out for Santa on ice. Good luck to you.
[signature]
I've only gotten one Santa gig this year, so far, but it will bring in enough for me to buy that ice auger from SkunkedAgain. [
