    Default Cold Thursday Trip!


    I just could not stand it any longer so hit the water yesterday in the cold and wind! Its not often but I got my butt handed to me...not one crappie! I did catch a bunch of bream and two small bass. Biggest problem was every time I pitched cork and jig ...ice would form on last three eyes of rod! I think my fingers thawed out sometime last night while sleepin! Here is a pic of my long rods with ice on them ...took this when I took boat out.

    Way to get after em, even though you didn't catch em. The colder the better for me.

    I have old cold blood, too old for that. Glad some of you younger ones can stand it.

    Spray WD-40 on guides and real and that will help keep ice from forming on the rod and line. Anybody have any ice fishing jigs, looks like we might have an ice fishing opportunity soon in all this global warming! lol

    A little vaseline in the eyes will help a lot as well.
