Default 2016 First ice season recap (pike, musky, pickerel, etc)

Despite growing up in New Jersey, I had never ice fished before, spending my winters chasing cod, seabass and blackfish. Thankfully, this January Chrisper convinced me to give it a shot. Took my first ice trip on January 24 and caught a pike and was hooked from there. My season was short and in a handful of trips I caught pike, pickerel, perch, sunfish and musky. While every fish was a blast to catch, the highlight of my ice season was a nice musky through the ice while fishing solo. Can't wait for next year!

that's awesome, nice catch. I myself fish all winter for tog and blackfish. it wasn't until I seen all the fish you guys have been catching through the ice that has got me interested. never been fishing on the ice before. normally I fish the rivers all winter and been picking up rainbows here and there. I will have to make some new ice fishing buddies by next winter and give it a try. I love the cold, I love to fish and I love to have a great time. good job to all you guys. you guys put in your time and are rewarded with some amazing fish. great pics.

Pretty damn good for your 1st ice season!! From the mixed bags up to the big teeth you & Cris pulled out, can't ask for a better way to start! Cool post and congrats on the season.
