| GREAT PICS ... WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN THERE !! MANAGED TO STICK A 35" ON SUNDAY . INTERESTING CATCH AND RELEASE FROM SHORE .. THE ICE WAS OUT ABOUT 2 FEET FROM SHORE BUT I WAS STANDING ON THE SEAWALL , I NEVER TOOK THE 2 OF THOSE FACTORS INTO COSIDERATION UNTIL I GOT HOOKED UP .... HAD TO LIFT THE FISHES HEAD UP ENOUGH SLIDE IT UP OVER THE ICE SO I COULD GET THE HOOKS OUT , BETWEEN THE STEEP HILL AND THE FOOT OF SNOW AND THE 2 OR 3 FOOT HIGH SEAWALL I ALMOST WENT IN THE DRINK ABOUT 5 OR 6 TIMES !! THEN I WASN'T SURE HOW TO GET THE FISH BACK IN THE WATER , I DIDN'T WANT TO THROW IT ( KEEP IN MIND THE 2 FEET OF ICE BETWEEN ME AND THE OPEN WATER ) SO I JUST SLID HER ON HER BELLY LIKE A PENGUIN ACROSS THE ICE AND INTO THE RIVER SHE WENT!! IT SURE WAS FUN TO CATCH THE FIRST FISH OF THE YEAR !! ALSO A LITTLE REDEMPTION ON THE RIVER , FISHED IT A FEW TIMES WITH NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT , UNTIL NOW !!! |
