Arrive to the new location see two guys jigging and running tip-ups, I decide pound out 8 holes about 50 meters from them. Sitdown in the frabill plop the AquaVu down the hole and see nothing, decide to look down the next hole bingo tall weeds with sand flats and perch hugging the bottom. Drop the jig down wham....Dam LM.Bass and again, and again time to move. Next hole about 30ft from a creek mouth, check ice thickness its good drill 2nd hole to place AquaVu (making my stand here our at least long enough to rest the arms and legs). As luck would have it my jig is visible on the screen right in the middle -Hooray
See nothing except my jig bouncing up and down, then comes the first perch and it inhales my jig. I proceed to pounded perch in this spot for the next 3hrs threw about 20 small ones back along with some small blue gill and sunfish, kept these ones for the freezer.
The 2 guys jigging were running minnows and they said the only caught a few, I was running some maggots on a JB lil'Mac yellow, although I think today the would have ate a pop can
On the AquaVu I saw lots of perch a 5lb+ LMB, 2 pike, 1 mudpout, sunfish, blue gill, but no crappie which is what I was hoping for when I started out this morning!
