LAST EDITED ON Jan-09-11 AT 06:29PM (MST)[p]Finally got out and spent some time on the Ice this weekend. We got out and fished Friday night and also went out for a few hours on Saturday afternoon...My daughter had a GREAT time. She was REALLY concentrating hard..she kept missing the good bites and could not Hook up.
Then she finally caught her first fish through the ice...a nice perch..all by herself..Hooked reeled in and took off the hook.
Then the Trout started biting...she could not keep the splake off her line...she was reeling them in faster than I could get my phone out to take a picture. Then she caught a NICE 20" Rainbow...then a couple more 22" Splake...I wished I had more than my phone to capture all the pics of her....she was in HEAVEN!
I was one PROUD dad as she held out in the cold and ice and fished until she was tired of catching fish!!!!! She had a blast!
We then went back to the cabin to rub it in to her sister and Mom that she had outfished everyone again...and spent a nice night at the cabin and headed home Sunday morning.
I think we are going to be spending LOTS more time up fishing through the ice....this girl is HOOKED!!!
She caught 15-20 nice perch...Lots of Splake in the 16-19" Range and that one really nice Rainbow. All but a couple splake and the rainbow went back in the hole for another day.
The ice is getting close to 10-12" and was great fun!!!!!
