Default Great Day on Mcgregor

Pretty good day out on lake Mcgregor. Ice was driveable and the evening bite was on. Lots of little pike throughout the day but the eyes are what we went for and they came on strong for about a hour or so before it got dark.

Good to hear. Looks like they like your Smart Fish. I always forget to try mine, but I tied it on the other day and had an eye chomp on it right away.

Thanks guys, I used to fish Mcgregor a lot and there was always typically a "low light" bite, really glad to see things haven't changed that much.
