Got out this weekend for only the second time this year. One short northern and a handful of little perch was all I could scare up. It was a beautiful morning out there though.

Tough to beat a good sunrise or sunset. Myself the wife my brother and two good friends made it out on the ice for an evening try. First spot was a bust so we moved, ended up catching some decent fish. The wife caught most of them but I will blame that on her using my stuff. Sunset Brother Hole hopping for crappies with an lx6 and a Tuned Up Custom Rod PN.

That LX-6 seems like such a sweet unit. How do you guys like that thing? I'd love to get one but I can't justify it since my decade+ old FL-8 still works like a champ. But those defiantly seem like the wave of the future. The display and features look awesome.

Its a very nice unit to say the least. Dual displays, clean clear crisp readings. I personally use an lx5 and wish I would have just spent the money on the lx6 or lx7. Side by side, from power to options, price for price you cant beat a Marcum.

Was planning to go this Sunday but at my age it's too stinkin' cold! lol I've never had much luck in really cold weather anyway. Now I have to see if I can keep my shiners alive another week. At 12 buck a dozen these days I hate to waste em.

went to a derby this weekend and it was a bust as for the fishing. I use to enjoy this small event but this year the number of guys was up, and the biggest thing to piss me off were people not marking tip ups that were buried in a ft of snow. I ran over a couple of them and had a few words with the people who placed them there. It is asked that tip-ups be marked but only a few guys actually marked them, then they wanted to try and batch at me for running something over I could not even see. No fights just some fun words.
I didn't win anything, but with the money raised this lake should be getting close to the funding needed to dredge this body of water. It is much needed.
