We got a break!! It's in the teens today people.. Suns out, blue bird sky's, and the ice is safe to drive on after a week and a half of negative temps and the windchill has been something else. Burrrr!!! My cousin, a friend of his and myself got into some really nice gills today, we kept 17. Some of these gills where so thick, they must be eating alright! (second picture) Got one small bass on a tip down, that was cool. First bass I've seen in person I think since the beginning of this last Nov. maybe? All made for a realy nice day in my book, fun stuff!

Finally... got a break from the hustle and said screw it.... time to get out and forget everything else! First fish of 2026!! 🎆 only caught two but it felt good 👍. Good eating size though.

To BLat, his crew, and all the folks in the SUF community, have a Merry Christmas and a safe and blessed holiday season!!

I opened the tube and there I heard....

A song... an Angelic song started playing!! It rang out to the masses.... It was SOMETHING TO BEHOLD!!

Alright, well not really but this is Awesome! Been waiting for these to drop for a while. Can't wait to use them!

Knew it was comming at some point... Winter is now here for us up "nort" Snowblower + shovel = fun! Right?? 😂

For one that likes to hunt and fish, its been a real good day today. Got to pull the trigger along side my son on some ducks on a beautiful morning, ended up with a couple teal, and had some bass success in the afternoon! Can't complain with that outcome, dang near a perfect day!

I've been doing a bit of house cleaning and organizing lately and look what I found! Any folks recognize this kit? First person who knows the name of this gets a star for the day! I just can't bring myself to throw these away! 😂

Been frustrated lately with my seeking out our LM friends... people are going to town on the pan fish though. Its been a good month that them big bass seemed to just up and disappeared, a few little ones once in a while, I haven't been out much either.. Life ya know... Finally got into acouple decent ones. Was just about ready to put the gear away and start rounding up the ice fishing stuff for the coming winter season.

I just gotta come say hi and support the guy when he comes to my neck of the woods!!
