    Caught this badboy a few weeks ago, brother in law had begged me to go for a long time. If the ice is sketchy where you are, try it!

    This was average size, I caught 2 footballs that were pushing 5lbs

    Nice. I always mean to do that, but I have yet to do it. What were they hitting?

    Sucker minnows. Big bait, big fish. I threw on rediculous 6″ ones and they crushed it.

    I use chubs & suckers up to 8 in. in the fall on Green Bay. Its a blast catching 50 fish a day and average size of about 4 lbs. They love that big bait. Those are some sweet fish you caught.
