great 1st ice trip

[bunker dunker]

my son,his 5year old daughter and i hit a small lake at 10am yesterday morning.put out our tip ups and started jigging.it was not long before the flags started flying.what a great sight to see my granddaughter running after them.we did very well catching perch,bass and a load of pickerel.she is a trooper when it comes to fishing and she wanted to stay.i bribed her with a promise of a big hot coco and a brownie for the ride home but before we got to the deli she was out.4-5 inches of good ice all around the lake.we did ok jigging too.#5 black and silver
and a tear drop with a mousie seemed to keep them biting.

sounds like a good day on the ice with family and fish to keep you busy. i as well found the fish this weekend perch, crappies and even a slime dart the ice was 4 to5" as well where i was.

Great report Ed! I am sure she may cash in on that coco and brownie soon and also sure you will be happy to deliver. Nice to see the family fishing tradition move on to another generation. Congrats

BD, way to catch em up. Youth is the future of our sport. There's nothing like watching your Children and Grandchildren get excited about fishing. Some of my earliest memories are fishing with my Dad and Grandma Lina.
