Sunday Post-Snow Pike 1/24/16
After yesterday's snowpacolypse, I was ready to get out on the water on Sunday. Chrisper and I had been planning to ice fish if it was doable. I spoke to Chrisper and we decided meet up on the hardwater for my first ice fishing trip. After digging out my car, shoveling the parking space, cleaning off my car and finding an open bait store I finally made it out significantly behind schedule.
We fished in one area for a while with not much going on. After seeing a bunch of flags fly and fellow njfisher Skunk City pull some fish through the ice, we relocated and got set up at the last spot of the day. Not much happened for me for a little while. Finally, I saw my flag go and I immediately began sprinting toward the tip up, eager to catch my first fish through the ice. Unfortunately, after a few steps in the deep snow, I managed to stumble and faceplant ed in an epic fashion in the powder. Not wanting to lose my only bite of the day, I scrambled to my feet and got to the tip up and quickly landed a pike. Felt great to catch my first fish through the ice on my first hardwater trip. Had a blast and I'm definitely planning to go again.

Not bad for a ROOKIE! The faceplant was epic, but the recovery was even better! Nice fish dude and welcome to the ice family!

Re: Sunday Post-Snow Pike 1/24/16
How does that auger hold up all day out there? It looks like a battery not engine? I have a gas and drill bit auger which I love but the batteries don't last of its really cold
