Was it cold? I didn't notice! Though the tips of my fingers hurt right now haha. Jdtuna and I headed out, set up shop and started jigging too. Over 70 fish jigged! Including a nice bass that put up a hell of a fight on the panfish jigging setup. Jdtuna iced a beastly pickle dart and a fat gator decided to ignore my big bait rigs and demolish my bass/pickerel rig with lighter leader and smaller hook/bait haha! Never saw the tip up spool spinning so fast! I waited for it to slow down so I could set properly and boom, Circle hook popped him right in the corner of the mouth and its teeth never touched the leader! Good times!

No fish were gaffed in the making of this report!

A 1/0 snelled with 20 flouro...if it didn't catch the very outside corner perfectly this would've went very differently haha. Everyone needs a little luck sometimes.

This was not budd lake btw, it was cranberry...or Farington...which ever you guys find more believable
