Looks like a male and femaile pumkinseed (female on the right).

Yep, both pumpkinseeds. Prob male/female or they will vary in coloration just like other species...
Sightfishing for sunnys n gills is prob my favorite type of icefishing.

Monster sheep is right, WOW! Wad caught 3 of them in a row yesterday but not that big. We managed a limit on the eyes but the bite was slow at first. The wind picked up a gave us a good drift and the waldos cooperated. Gold Harness with a bouncer was the ticket and got one on a purple buck tail with a leech. Cheeks out!!!

[Cheeks13]

Catching walleyes in ten feet of water at 2:00pm on a flat lake with a cloudless sky and a surface temp of 79 degrees!!
It's weird, but I'll take it.

Some really neat stuff comming out of the big tradeshow called ICAST...
One that has me excited is the new Rapala X-Rap Countdown. The original x-rap is one of my favorite baits for casting for eyes. This bait will have a place for me when a little more depth is needed...
