I am home in Michigan for spring break until Monday. My parents and I went ice fishing this morning. Usually, ice fishing is terribly cold, but we had better temps than we did for March's NFGFC tournament! When we got back in the car at noon, the thermometer read 65. This means the end of the season is approaching and the ice won't be safe for many more days.

We caught a pike and two bass on tip-ups rigged with 2-3" minnows.




Power auger


Mom outfished us all catching 8 bluegill to my 4 and dad's 2. What a great way to spend time with my family.



If anyone's interested in checking out pictures of our lures, tip-ups, bait, augers, spud, sunrise pics or more of the frozen tundra, you can follow the link below. I'm not sure how many of you have been ice fishing, but what a riot!

Congrats on the pig pike

That is friggin aswesome! That's a heck of a nice bass for Michigan ain't it?

That makes me cold just thinking about it.
I caught a trout as big as that second picture once.


Great pics.

Are the pictures from da UP or apple knocker country?

We didn't fish da UP, eh. We were fishing over here *points to hand* in the burbs just west of Detroit.

Don't back up; might break a leg.
How do you get one of those monster fish out of one of those itty-bitty holes anyways?
Looks like fun.

Now I know where the bass mount missing from my office went.

Man K8 that's so cool What a good looking Bass,,,,Is that a spotted Bass?

The Bass Boy can't tell a largemouth bass whem he sees one.

Holy Crap, I didn't realize people caught fish that big while ice fishing! That's a nice bass anywhere!
