Bear Lake Updates?

[trowtslayr]

We had a great time at the bear last weekend. Had a bunch of first timers on the ice, it was a hoot. The fishin was slow but i managed to catch a mack on saturday and a cut on sunday. Attached is the cut, he was a native so he swam away unhurt, unmeasured and unweighed. Only took the time to take a shot of him and let him go, he sure was a beautiful fish. The mack however is another story. I actually have footage of this story: my nephew was fishing with us and had both of his poles outside the hooch, he came into the hooch to get warm for a minute and asked me to watch his pole out the window, well i took my eyes off it for a minute and when i looked back there was no pole, no pole holder. he didnt believe me when i told him it was gone so he didnt move to fast either, so when he got done crying (not really) he was getting out another pole to fix up and all of sudden all three poles in the hooch all got a bump in a row, then the pole outside my window got a bump and then the pole out further from that one got a bump and hooked up, well that pole was mine so running i go and grab my pole after telling my nephew to just stand guard on it so it didnt go in the drink until i got to it. well i start reeling and i definately got something on my pole, here comes my jig and its hooked on another line, so my nephew was there kneeled down my hole and grabbed the line and proceeded to pull up his lost pole but that wasnt all the mack was still on the other end of the line, he had swallowed the tube jig totally. So in your opinions, and i know you all got em, who gets credit for the catch. Everyone in my party said me but my nephew, go figure. lol i hope my pictures are attached ok, but with my luck they probably are not. Anyway it was a great weekend all around. Not to mention on sunday, i bet i had 4 different families come out and just ask how we were doing, so i showed em all the fish camera and they could see all the fish swimming on the bottom but not biting, they thought that was way cool, especially the kids. I even got my mom out there sunday. It was great!!
