Took a ladder and a lack of brains but I finally got out on a local trout lake. ea2f94ad86fc826f30201fb02c89147a.jpg

Wow,  look at the spots on that rainbow..It reminds me of the wild leopard rainbows that I caught while hunting in the Alaska wilderness....They were prettiest, and by far the best tasting rainbows I have ever eaten...Never been too keen on local rainbows, either lake run or stream, but those Alaska rainbows were delicious...

Of course the SURROUNDINGS may have had something to do with it....Cooked on the coals of a campfire 500 miles from the nearest road...  In that environment, probably a DOG TURD would have tasted good.....Hehehe...

Best part about this spot is I’m 100yds from a bar with great burgers and a young lady serving cold beers with front bumps that will make a fella drool!

Huge disappointment, they were out of burgers and the lady tending bar was older than Pygmy!

I am going to need those coordinates.  I will bring a ladder too!

Back to the ladder......was that to get from the shore to safe ice?

The public access has a neighbor with an ice eater blowing across the small setback where the access is. 6-8” of ice on the lake and on shore but 20yds off shore there is a open section 10ft wide.

The ladder worked great going out but wasn’t as effective on the way off. It ended up being a cold wet ride home.

Got out on a little local lake with[mention=1547]treeguy[/mention] today and we had a blast. Caught 50+ gills. His setup is sick! I need a flasher like I need air to breathe

I'd say minimum 50 each, and not feel like I'm bloating the numbers. Great day !

I doubt I'll spend the money for a couple times a year but will keep my eyes open for used

That's how I got mine. A buddy of a fishing buddy of mine had two and sold me one

Get a Hummingbird Helix 5 or 7 All season package.  You need a new fish finder on your boat so you can zero in on those gills in the weeds and you’ll have the ice transducer too.
