    We did a big fishery this past Sunday. Had a blast, but only one legal fish caught by our group.

    Not my Ram, it's my buddy's. I couldn't bring myself to drive the Taco on the ice. :eek:

    There were hundreds of trucks on the lake.

    10"-14" but I wouldn't drive my rig on the ice if there was 24". I like my truck too much...

    Plus I can pull all my stuff out with the quad if need be.

    Nice fish. I had the northers nailing my perch jigs. I would jig for the perch with a little moon jig tipped with a spike and they would hammer it from out of no where. I watched some of them miss and they would double back and try again. Had a real good time. I have pics, I will try to post some when I get home.

    Yeah, the cell phone pic makes them look small, but the biggest perch was 10" or so. The knife makes an ok reference.

    I often go ice fishing... cept' i do not own any tip ups. Nor do I fish..
    i just stand around and make sure the beer doesn't freeze by pouring it into my mouth.

    Just got home. ended up staying on the ice all night friday night and most of the day today. Caught a few real nice perch and few pike, but didn't keep any of the pike, they looked pretty beat up. I will post the catch pictures tomorrow. I do have some Tacoma on ice pics though.......:D.

    awesome, did you build a fire to keep warm? I hear some guys build a fire out on the ice. Just wonder how they do that.
