That was a very good deed PB.I'm glad ole Bobber stopped at his hip that morning.

Dragging 325 lbs from the drink would have been a chore.

The ice is 12-15" now.I've seen a suburban in the narrows and a small car on the horn.Crazy sob's!There is still sluch all over but if a guy stays on the hardpack of the trails there's no worries.

I'll warn you fishing has been tough.

Here's my buddy BerkleyBoy with his 1st BSL crappie.

He came all the way up from Iowa to give it a run.

He & his wife stayed at the BigSandy Lodge.

Ck,

I hit the lake most of the day today but only ended up with five small crappies. I had fish on the Vex all day but just could not get them to take it. They would not touch live bait at all but I tried a small fly and that worked better than anything else.

Are you seeing fish react this way a lot more this year compared to years past.

[palisade1kid]

They have been more finicky.I'm thinking it has to do with the multitudes of fronts rolling though.

We need some steady weather.

hey pierbridge this is wes, that was my uncle who went through, you should give me ur e-mail he would like to talk to you

Wow, what a read. Pier, that was a great thing you did and all the others that helped out, Wes's uncle wouldn't be here right now if it weren't for the quick thinking of the three that saw him go in. Going through the ice is no fun, I have done it when I was younger and nearly didn't make it. Its a good thing there are people out there that are willing to risk it all to help others out.

Hey Wes welcome!

My friend Chris who's cabin we brought your uncle too talked to him this weekend and it sounds like we may get together with you guys hopefully up north!

Here's my E-Mail.. ggoody68 at yahoo.

All we did was after the real heroes got him out of the water was to bring him back to the cabin and get him out of his wet cloth's and ready for the paramedics.

I knew he was going to be alright he was real alert and remembered your phone number I'm glad they didn't have to airlift him.

Now if we can get that sled out of Billhorn Bay...DOH!

Keith, that would have a chore for sure to get Bobber Down out we had life jackets and rope so we would have got the job done.

Later Pier!
