My brother flew in from Washington to visit with family, and I sold him on going up to Strawberry with my wife, myself and a buddy today. Since it was his first time ice fishing, and hadn't caught a fish in 11 years, I wanted him to get one badly. We arrived at 7:00 am with the thermometer reading -13 degrees, a good start for any first timer[crazy] Hit the ice and drilled a few holes at 30', and he was the first to get one...mission accomplished[
] Between the four of us we caught and released 6 between 18" and 21", all on a Natural Green 2 1/4" Radical Glow tube jig, a mealy, and Trout Gravy. It was pretty slow, however I got a chance to take my brother out and experience something new, and and spend quality time together. He is already planning on coming back next year[
