Started off on the "I should have stayed in bed" type of morning but we made it happen in the end.

Absolutely gorgeous weather today!

I came back to look at those pics again, and wanted to say thank you. A little more than 30 days and we can fish for stripers again. Hoo rah!

[lostatsea]

Yup yup now its less than 30. A few winter shows to see and it will be striper time again.

4.5-5" of ice on a small lake in Bergen county today

Still got ice?

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.

[plugcrazy]

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
