Ya it was even our first try ice fishing the gorge (at least in 25 yrs) I had two of my sons and 3 of my sons 14 yr old pals (2 of which had never done any fishing of any kind) Needless to say they had a blast, for one 2 hr period we had nonstop action (bites,hook upa, or iced every couple of minutes) It seemed to easy to be true, the night far exceeded my expectations. Just wish we could have got into more burbot. And I know on the next trip we won't be out there with 6lb test and light weight ice rods. I know we had several break offs that were obviously much larger than the 2-5 pounders we iced. We'll definetly return next year for another try. I thought it was just beginers luck and hitting the right place at the right time.
