I hear ya. Many times I've caught some first thing in the morning off my favorite pier (by first thing I mean just before or just as the sun is coming up) and when I get home shortly after 5pm and go to clean whatever I managed that day, the first one I caught always seems to be the most energetic of the bunch. It should be dead, but it ain't. It's frightening.The ZOMBIE FISH at 1030ish today. When it started jumping around I considered selling our house!!!
some have said that about me sittin on my favorite pier when I'm catchin and they ain't.Its unholy.....plain and simple!
Looks like a big perch on the end of that rod sitting on the bottom. LOLPlenty of clear solid ice at least 12’ thick. Wish I had thought through the cleaning process before I brought home 40. Thank god we threw as many back.
You weren’t able to hook it with a jig or anything??So I am down one ice rod
I could not tell where you were from that under water photo. Just assumed it was at the bottom underneath the holeIt got into a current and we were fishing in about 25/27 feet so we tried but there was no way to get a hook over there. We even tail hooked a perch we caught and sent him back down hoping he would swim near it but he refused to cooperate with us. I rigged up a 3point hook with no results. Unless I opened up above it with a saw there was no way to get at it cause the perch pulled it away from us when he took it. As you can clearly see in the picture.
Dropping a cell phone @Derkd9 would definitely not be a good thing! I know someone that has lost a cell phone ,but not down an ice fishing hole,but by holding a pike for a selfie shoot while fishing out of a kayak!! lol At least @rcfire77 fishing pole likely would not be as expensive as a cell phone! But either way,it sucks to loose an ice fishing rod!!I could not tell where you were from that under water photo. Just assumed it was at the bottom underneath the hole
I also did not know you were over 27 feet of water.
At least yah tried hahaha sucks losing a rod like that.
At least you didn’t drop your cell phone
