otisco 2/13

[perch predator]

Got set up at otisco yesterday at about 11. Saw there was a tourney, and it was packed so I couldn't set up where I was hopeing to. Was in a rush so I didn't enter the tourney. Stupid decision. Caught this on my first drop without another bite or flag the rest of the day.

Best fight I've ever had on a jiggin rod or ever through the ice.

That was just north of otisco park in 6' of water. The ice was a little scary. Most of the holes were 8" but I drilled one 20' away from the shanty that was only 4" , and I saw some open water in front of the park from the creek. I wasn't targeting browns, just a lucky drop I guess.
