Petty and I hit Causey (finally). This was the first time ever to walk on water it was a "godlike" feeling.
We arrived as the plow was just about to run across the dam and of course I had to get my car stuck in the deep snow, We finally got it out and then I trid my best to put it into a snow bank, not a good start to the day.
We finally got down to the ice and immediately stepped into a hole and got soaked to my knee. Then I guess just so I wouldn't feel bad Petty did the same darn thing! Now I'm thinking that this just isn't to good. Well we found a goot solid place to step onto the ice and picked our spot to begin drilling holes.
Petty pulled up the first splake of the morning and I was thinking that I just might get skunked but the gods looked favorable upon us and I began to catch the little splake too.
All told we caught maybe 20 fish total and had a good time. Most of the time it was cloudy and the wind did kick up a little but outside of cold feet it was OK.
A good experience for my first time on the ice.[cool]
