No Ice, bummer, but life is still good
« on: Jan 16, 2007, 01:26 PM »
Well, since it was 70 degrees yesterday in Maryland we can't find any ice, but with the way fishing has been lately I'm sorta not missing it much ;D  So, I thought that I'd sport my Iceshanty wear, go fishing, maybe bring home some pics to remember the trip by and share with y'all.

Here are some pics of a nice trip I had yesterday to Maryland's Eastern Shore.  We caught a bunch of chain pickerel, some nice fat bass and crappie.  Here are a few pics.  Fishing was good or I would have posted more, no time to stop and take pictures on a hot bite  ;D

Chunky slab crappie w/shoulders


Fat gill, sorry about the lesion


Golden shiners are huge in this lake...hence big bass and big pickerel! ;D


Fat sassy largemouth bass

Hey how far are you guys from wisp the ski resort? Passed that lake many times and only seen it frozen a few?
Nice day out!
Internet heros give it a rest!

Thanks everyone for the compliment.  Yeah, I've been lurkin' more than postin' these days.  I'd post pics and reports more if I didn't forget my camera so friggin' much.  That, and being busy so much with other non-fishin' things :)

Nice variety you got there, Fat Boy!  Right now I'd trade you our 40" thick ice and -10°F temps (plus wind chill) for a bit of that open water fishing.  Winters in Manitoba are looooong!  I'm getting tired of jigging and it sure would be nice to start casting again!  Keep the pictures coming!  :clapping:
