    Last night I was out locking in some more early ice spots. I found a great spot and hoisted in quite a few gills using my ice gear, lots of these fish were hitting the 9″ mark. my flasher was lit up like a Christmas tree for quite a while.

    Right at dark they dissapeared and I ended up catching this fat girl. Mid 20 inch fish on 3lb Suffix Ice Magic. Black Betty performed like a champ!!

    Great pics…good to see that reel is holding up as advertised. The thing feels bullet proof in hand.

    Really hoping the 6061 lives up to bill, got my name on one and dying to get it in hand in a few weeks.

    Impressed with the 13 guys this season, they came from nowhere FAST

    Very nice catch. Wish we had Eyes up this way. Glad the reel is working out. Nice to see new products that work well.
