UL today

[GEEZER]

Hit UL today with MasterDaad and his daughter. Their first time on the hard deck & the fish gods d on us. That's after we walked & MasterDaad drug my sled about 750 miles into the foggy gloom. We saw some folks out another 500 miles into nowhere so decided to head out & see what was keepin' em there. We struck gold about 200' from them. Hit a mob of whities & slayed them. Had a good laugh when MasterDaads daughter asked what a double was. We explained it was when one caught a fish on both hooks on their line at the same time. She musta liked the idea 'cause a bit later she caught a double. That sold her on the double thing 'cause she did it twice more. I 'spect the last two were just to show off. I had a blast watching those two get hooked on ice fishing and evem got the bonus of catching a couple good meals worth of whities. IT WAS A GOOD DAY!

My 73 yr old legs are screaming at me and I couldn't have made that trek without the help from MasterDaad and his daughter. Gotta thank both of them for the day and the help.

OK, OK, I mighta fudged the mileage a little but my legs don't think so.

Great post. Good on ya for sharing the sport. I took a first time ice fisherman out to the gorge and had more fun watching him try to hook the bony mouthed Macs than I did catching fish.

Yup, thanks for the great trip Geezer.

Great introduction to Ice Fishing.

I have some pictures of my daughter with a smug, braggadocious after landing a triple double.

Her third she landed toward the end of the day. Her top jig was tangled on the flasher and as we only had 20 mins or so left I told her we'd spend half the fishing time left fixing it.

She told me she was going to show me how to catch a double on a tangled line... she let it out to the bottom... four reels up... Bam Bam.... doubles.

Great trip and Great company.

Thanks Again!

My daughter and I ended up with a total of 61.

But Geezer caught bigguns.
