So Sunday morning K-man and I hook up with a friend and hit the road to the lake. It starts raining about 1/2 there. We get out to his cabin and head for the ice house, it is still raining.
Get out there and get set up. It was not very cold, here is K-man in the ice house.
It is slick on the ice as the rain has not frozen. Even had to chain up our ride to keep from slipping and sliding.
Setting tip-ups on the bare ice.
A few minutes later the rain turns to sleet, the sleet to snow and the temps. drop. Here is the same view just a short while later. The tip up is nearly buried in the snow.
Even forced K-man to put on his coat and hat then hit the hot cocoa again.
And the sum total of our efforts were three little perch. I did catch the worlds smallest northern but returned him to the water. The shack next to us caught one fish all day but it was a bruiser, 22 lb. northern. Never did hook up with mtmiller. He still owes me a promised drink I guess.
