What are you hunting/fishing?

[processhead]

Did some ice fishing in South Dakota with my brother and some friends last week. I am not an ice-fisherman or even much of a fisherman.
This is a shameless plug for the two guys in the second picture http://www.sdelitefishing.com/that got us on a good perch bite over the two days we were fishing on the glacier lakes near Watertown.

processhead Those perch will be delicious. I just went through Watertown Thursday, unfortunately couldn’t stop to fish, looks like it would have been a good time.

YooperDog it really was. The ice was still about 2 ft thick but we loose are shorelines pretty fast when it warms up with the wind. My brother is going to give it a try again today.

Yes the first day we got into some nice crappie and one walleye.
We were drilling holes in 30 inch ice, but the guides said they were shutting it down after one more week after looking at the weather forecasts.

processhead There’s some very good eating to be done from that table. Believe the girls were happy to get rid of you guys for a bit while you had fun in the COLD. Thinking everyone had some fun on both sides of that arrangement.

processhead How was the water clarity? For a fish that doesn’t get as long as it’s cousin “Walley” some really nice filets can come from them!

Water quality was very good on Waubay. Clear, pale green water.

No, just depth/ fish locators.
