Still got ice?

Fished a small ice tournament this Saturday on a private lake w/my brother. Ice was 3-6" depending on the area. Spots with more sun exposure were around 3" and the shaded areas were a good 6" or better. This rain and warm weather will destroy what little ice was left...
We had good fishing for about 10 minutes and then the action completely shut down (I believe too much pressure on a small lake). In the first few minutes we had this small bass which is the only fish I had time to take a picture of (wanted to get them weighed in and released asap).
We also got another small bass, and a bigger one that weighed in at 2.8lbs, three pickerel and one crappie.
Between the two of us we ended up in third place in 3 out of 4 categories. Now if only 3rd place had a prize! LOL
3rd Place bass
3rd Place pickeral
3rd Place other "crappie"
1st place bass was a beautiful 4.7lber and second was 3.0lbs.

Nice going. Respectable lmb for the wintertime.
Only 3rd place? Man with all the times you guys have been crushing them, I would expect you to dominate the competition! Nice going anyway
Good work congrats.
My that was a pleasant surprise to look at on a cold winter day. Be safe out there. Good job.
Good job fellas thanks for sharing.
What a great day to take advantage of what will probably be the last day of ice fishing in New Jersey this season.
Lots of quality bass and pickerel today and one crappie just to keep things interesting.
It was hard to limit it down to just 20 pictures.
I can get use to ice fishing in 60 degree weather!

Great job gents.
Nice reports really gets me going! Thanks for the share and congrats on the fish.
Awesome report. Seems like all of the fishermen are smiling except for the one in the Orange HH overalls. Is that J Barbosa? not trying to start trouble, just wondering:d
Btw nice job to everyone, hope you guys don't mind the ballbusting, I am just so jealous because work and family has been a bear lately.
Wifey has me locked down for the winter. My only enjoyment is fishing shows and living through you guys out there catching. Thank you so much for the reports.
Funny stuff. not trying to pile on either, did notice that the dude in orange looks a little bit like a poster on the post office wall. JB that's not you, right?
Great reports. x2 what fnm said, nice to see some fish caught in legal waters. The PP has been way too crowded this winter.
