Those Northerns are wild on my lake this year. I can't get a spear into one yet. Also, I don't know what I am going to do today. The Pike are running the same time that the game is on. I don't have a tv in my house. Sorry, just had to air my frustration to someone that understands. My wife has no sympathy for me.

Go fishing...

Less frustration than watching the game.!!! grin

You wouldnt happen to have a drop down wheel house that your spearing out of and a red ford truck? If so that has been us spearing just west of you in the portables and MJ's big green perm. And the pike have been running the best for me from 1 till 4pm.

Yep I had the hot hole, 3 Sat biggest 28.25 inches and 3 Sun all little snakes but good for pickleing. Can't say if it was the same fish or not but had a pike in the hole 11 times from 2 till 3:30 when I finally saved my sucker and took the last one for a limit.

woop woop limit by 12:20pm started at 9 not a bad day biggest was 31" 7-8lbs, ill post pics soon, came into my red n white decoy I made, scared the bajesus outta me came in attacking my deak 5 times before it slowed down enough to spear. Very fun day today and Heidi didnt get a good chance to spear one so hopefully tomorrow she will get one right away! If I talked to you guys in person I could explain the day of fun alot better and why Heidi didnt get a chance today, but I guess Ill wait til the GTG when I drink pepski and smoke smokes and talk about the adventure!

Yeah John limited out on mon. I ran to town 3 times durning the afternoon and everytime I came back he had a different pike on the ice. Apparently I must be bad luck in the shack for him. BUT, on tuesday.....I finally got one!!!!! Not huge by any means...but still got one!! Yay! laugh

Heidi n I saw 14 northerns, lots of little guys but we came home with 4 and 1 14" bullhead. The trip was awesome and I had a blast! They really loved my red n white northern decoy. 2 came into the spinner but the other 12 came into that same deak. And didnt even want the live sucker. I heard of the fish coming in real fast and I only had the 31" come in like that and then Heidi's fish but other than that they decoyed nicely.

Another pic of it,it has awesome markings.

It was nice to have you 2 around, as far as the pepski I might drink you under the table with my Mtn Dew.

      That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty.  Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.   As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows,  you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.

      I think electric items have their places, I just don't think large commercial jobs are going to be able to work well with them. Can't see a logging crew out in the woods all day changing batteries!

      I agree on the choices.   I didn't mean to say that a battery auger was better or greener or whatever.  I could care less about that.   It just seems that "most" ice anglers have made a switch to a battery auger in recent years.  That's all I was saying.  I know about a dozen people who regularly ice fish and they all have battery augers now.  I bet if you conducted a survey of all ice anglers, the majority would answer that they use a battery powered auger.
