Yesterday, a friend and I decided to take our kids and some of their friends out on the lake for some pike action.
The ice is ideal for skating, so set lines were just the ticket... us Dad's watch the lines while the kids skate and play hockey...
When a flag would trip - call over the kids...
Needed to lug a lot of crap out when fishing with 5 kids

My young lad pulled in a 4lb bass and was rather pleased at his new PB... but I can't show a pic in this report as it was OOS... back down the hole quickly...!!
There were some red rosy cheeks at the end of the day... tired and one happy bunch of kids!!
