I took a friend of mine out this morning for his first ever ice fishing trip after hearing the good reports and doing well myself on Sunday. Unfortunately, something must have changed...we fished hard for three hours and didn't ice a single fish! The guy in front of us caught 3 nice ones but no one else in sight was doing anything. We started the day with small and pink and ended up using small and red, small and yellow, large and black...basically everything in my tackle box! I am not sure what could have changed, I know Sunday was sunny and pleasant and today was cloudy and ugly...can't imagine that makes that big a difference through the ice tho.
Oh well, that is why they call it fishing and not catching! It won't stop me from trying again real soon. Maybe next time I'll head up to Ririe if that ice gets a little thicker...
