Clairise and I spent the weekend with some friends at our favorite lake - here are some pics. Any other hard water anglers out there with some pics to share?

Wow...very nice haul!
That looks like a whole lot of fun.

Those are some nice fish you caught there. I'd always wanted to go ice fishing, but never really got around to it.

Mmmmm.

Saw some people out ice fishing on the lake my campus is right next to when I came in yesterday.

i ice fished for the first time new years eve. it was a warm day, 35 degrees. but i shit you not, MISQUITOS were out. i killed about 5 of em. we couldnt figure out why they were out, or not dead, but further more, they were actually aggressive and i got bit once on the hand. very odd.

There was one in my bathroom yesterday. I thought that was odd too. I was like, where the hell did he come from. Then I remembered I hate them, and got mad.

those perch are beautiful man... HUGE compared to what perch i usually catch.

it might be the picture, but it looks like all those perch have the bends.

The trout is 22", and most of the perch are 10-13". I put a picture of them in the sink, with a beer can next to them for size reference in the "Whats for dinner" thread- the only other lake that I consistently caught perch that size, was Oneida (over by Syracuse).

I'm not sure if there stomachs come up because I'm so dam ugly, or if it's because I'm bringing them up from 68'

Your dogs are so freaking beautiful

wow, they sure are deep. that doesn't damage the meat at all? weird. by the way, i'm looking to start fly fishing. any advice on rod/reel setups for beginners?

Send me a pm with any questions you have - I don't go high dollar, just use Pflueger medalist reels and a 20 yr old graphite fenwick rod. let me know what you are going to fish for, and I'll fill you so full of BS you'll look like one of those perch

The meat from the deep perch is some of the best - I think Schony will vouch for that!!

Thanks Sneaky, they are great friends as well - the pheasants probably do not share your sentiments however!
