as most you all know i'm allways hutting them tiger trout.. went to one of my favrit spots today to do a ice check and see if it was ready to hunt yet..
first step the ice broke under foot.. next step solid choped a test hole 4" cool got my stuf down to the ice and started out. about 10 feet out felt a good pop in the ice.. so i slamed the ice bar down on the ice, first hit all the way through the ice,, oh poop i thought went bak the way i came and headed over to the dock's..
found the ice there better.. about 2 to 2 1/2 inchs so gave it a try.. after hitting some very light bitting small bow's just re-baited the hook droped it down set the pole down then set me down, look at the pole to see the light bite at it again.. reach down set the hook and thought i had a snag.. well that is tell the line started zipping off the reel..
the the little beast turned right for the hole and shot right out the hole on to the ice.. lol well thats one way to get them out the hole!lol
some more rainbows and time to head home!
here are the pic's..
