Ice Fishin Honey Hole Again
Hit my favorite ice pond today. As I pulled up my buddy had a pickerel.
I made the wining hole. As soon as I dropped my panfish jig tipped with waxworm I had a hit.
Caught a nice jumbo. Then caugh another immediately after.
Action died a little when they stole my bait.
My buddy made a hole next to mine. Dropped a kast master bam nice jumbo.
I try a different worm. A meal worm. No hits.
So I drop it in the hole where my buddy got the pickerel.
I bait my lindy ratle'n spoon with wax worm. Before I could bait my spoon. My rod with the panfish jig takes off.
But at first I thot it was my other rod hitting it.
Set the hook. Bam the pickerel hit.
I could see the pickerel running.
Best part I was using an ultra light with 4 pound test!
I try using my rattlin soon on the other of In the perch hole.
Couple minutes another nice jumbo!
No hits for a little. Made a new hole nothing.
I go to a hole my buddy made but caught nothin.
I drop my pan fish jig with waxworm get another hit immediately. Wasn't a perch hit! I knew it was a sunfish!
5 minutes I caught a nice pumpkinseed. My. Buddy makes another hole next to me. Catches another pumpkinseed.
Action dies I move to a hole where my buddy had a jumbo hit.
I dropped my panfish jig down. Immediately caught a nice jumbo.
My buddy quick released a pickerel at the sunfish hole. It threw the hook at the hole.
That's it for the night.
I got 6 fish 4 jumbos pickerel and pumpkin seed!
My buddy got 1 pickerel 1 jumbo and a sunnie!
Really?
I'm hoping to catch a tiny perch and put it on a tip up
The way you jig you don't need Bait. Use those pan Fish. Bang them off the ice and plop them in the hole and get ready
