Was good meeting you. Thats awesome you won that perch by ironworker. He does excellent work with metal.
---[My addition to the report]--
I arrived around 6:45, packed up and was first on the ice by only about 5 minutes then there were about 6 other groups on the ice at the same time.
The morning started slow, I was in 52 feet of water and didnt have a hit. Phil and his lil fishing buddy showed up and sonar'd the area and found fish in 40 feet so I moved in more shallow. Mikecromain showed and he started getting hits like crazy with his paddlebug tipped with meal worm. I tipped with meal worm and put on a chartreuse Genz Worm and dropped it in. After that it was clockwork, drop jig, and wait for the perch to school threw. I didn't move from the spot til I caught 16 and it slowed. I moved out another 50 feet and got my limit by 11:00.
Overall was a great day, alot of perch being caught, alot of people getting limits and alot of great time on the ice with BFT'rs.
Thanks for putting this on Rob, it was an absolute blast.
