I think that in eveyones mind they are trying to say what is wirte or wrong or what someones ethics could be. As I was reading the post on here about what people think is their oppinion. keep in mind though guys although many people practice C&R sometimes u may want to keep two bigger pike to mount and eat. Why condemn someone for this. Are these fish being wasted? No they are not> I understand the feelings about this scenario but lets be honest here poachers take fish illegally all the time and yes they deserve to be repramanded but someone who fishes legally and gets chewed out in my mind is down right dumb. It was through another member that I am colleagues with that told me about the grief this guy was getting. I thought that I would voice my oppinion. I always looked at this site as being one to brag on and share your good fortune but from what I have seen if you decide to keep a big fish or two you should keep your mouth shut and brag over the phone to your friends . So lets all be happy we are catching fish this season

Wow what a morning limited out on crappies and sunfish by 12:30 P.M. Lots of ice safe to walk still no good for driving but hey who minds a little walking. Just a word of advice to those wanting to catch fish during daylight use grubs of some sort larvae and waxies will out fish a minnow 10 to 1. Ice is still sitting at a solid 12″. Best of luck to all who fish this fun lake
