We got there at 7:15 a.m. and trekked out to the spot we fished most of the morning. My dad hooked into a bow just after 3 minutes with a white tube jig and sucker meat.

It was his first time ice fishing and he had a blast.[/left] [left] [/left] [center][inline jakesplake.jpg][/center] [center] [/center] [left]Here is Pikeman's cousin. He seemed to hook into the best fish. ( I hope this is who i think it is....)[/left] [center][inline IMGP0180.jpg][/center] [center] [/center] [left]The fishing was a lot of fun and the weather was as good as I could expect. I was expecting a huge storm but the area was only dusted with snow the night before. The wind was low and not bad at all. I even got some sun on my pastey face![/left] [left] [/left] [left]Much thanks to Mrs. Pikeman for the great food. If you missed the get together you really missed out on some AWESOME jerky, beefsticks, cheeseballs, etc. And thanks to Pikeman and all his relatives for helping put this together and all the planning that went into it. We need to plan one of these for the spring! I'll close off with this sexy close-up! Thanks, Bigben[/left] [center][inline bowclose.jpg][/center]
