you can keep counting. I plan to spend feb and mar down in fl doing my ice fishing from my boat, LOL.

I am kinda in count down mode as I plan my 2 week trip to erie the 11th of july.

the best of luck to all you hard water fisherman. I caught my 1st eye through the ice back in the winter of 80/81. it was 9 1/2 lbs and 29 1/2" long. and I've been a walleye addict ever since.

Go back to sleep John. One of us will wake you up at a quarter till freeze up. Making a new ice lure this year calling it the " flicker spoon ".

Not holding out but was hoping to test before pix or talk about. Anyway got idea of using jig hooks instead of standard hooks on little spoon blades and pin min blanks.

In tank testing the ones with the jig hook really dance and flash. Even the most subtle lift of rod causes a flickering effect. Bottom two rows perch and walleye in mind. The other rows are panfish sized.

Nice jigs papa! Keep us posted with their successes/flaws. If you need some help field testing them I could be the GUY! Just saying?
Been passing my time getting some of the open water eyes out of the lake and hitting garage sales for deals. Got an 8" earth auger- never had fuel in it- has the same power head as my Eskimo auger, for 70 bucks!
