I'm sitting at a computer and your putting fish on the ice.Keep up the great work, and by the way, do you also hunt?
Yeah I have a rod rigged with braid I would probably use next time as well, but this is all I had there with me with a bobber stop on the line. Could of tied one up, but this worked. Goes to show you can do a lot with 10 or 12 pound test whatever it is.

You know I haven't done any hunting since I was a kid for grouse. Maybe one day I'll get back into birding but for now fishing is an all year affair for me. We're not really much of a meat eating family. The wife and kids are pretty much vegetarian except for the odd time they may eat a little fish.
