Today I got a chance to get back on the ice! I don’t know how many ice fishing trips are left this winter… Ice fishing season is notoriously short in Nebraska. We are on the very southern edge of where you can ice fish at here in the Cornhusker State. And that’s okay… I would prefer the weather to warm up so I could put a fly in the water.
But ice fishing is better then no fishing…
I had a great day on the ice today… I actually caught fish! Much better then my last ice fishing trip where I didn’t catch a thing. We went out on a private pond, so per personal policy I will not disclose where I was…
I ended the day with 7 bluegill, 3 crappies, and 1 largemouth bass… and I didn’t lose any gear. So I win, 11-0…
And it was nice to feel a fish yanking on the end of my line… Up to today I hadn’t landed a fish since November.
Not everyone understands why someone would willingly sit on top of a frozen lake in January, but enjoy the pictures…
I’ve been out twice so far and haven’t got anything to show for it. We should have ice a bit longer up here though. Lucky you. I hope I catch some tomorrow
.
Good luck! I might be able to squeeze one more ice trip out.. It will depend on the temps!
Good luck! I have had a ton of luck in the three trips I have made. But our season is probably over
Wow cool shots.
Thanks!
Oh my goodness, how fun!!! I was hoping to go ice fishing in North Bay, Canada but now it seems the time I’ll be there will be an off season.
