Hawg_Hunter Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 90% of the state still locked up with ice on the lakes, so I had to head 90 miles south to find open water to cure this extreme cabin fever. I only caught 5 fish, but one of them was pretty nice 6lb 3oz 22" Black n blue jig n pig 5751852 Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Funny. Hawg called me on the way to the lake, ....looking for a little confidence and spewing his excitement about having open water. I told him I got 2 the other day,...this means ANYONE can catch one now,lol. I'm guessing confidence won't be an issue this coming weekend,lol. WAY TO STICK 'EM HAWG!!! Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted March 17, 2008 Super User Posted March 17, 2008 NICE PIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
MaxDal Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Nice bass ! Was that still in the land of the rolling prairie after the 90 miles toward south ? I've got friends in Spirit Lake and they told it's still pretty cold up there. Well seeing all the many clothes you have on you, I bet it wasn't real warm either. Congrats on a nice bass ! Quote
Super User 5bass Posted March 17, 2008 Super User Posted March 17, 2008 That's a good'un Double H....what was the water temp? Quote

No, where I was would be at the complete opposite corner of the state. They still have 30" of ice up that way! That's a good'un Double H....what was the water temp? Water was 44 degrees. Quote
pipho Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Lucky!! We still got quite a bit of ice left to melt in northeastern Iowa Quote

That's funny Russ! ;D He never mentioned anything about that to me. Besides he has one the better guides around Southern Iowa. Once again, she's a Hawg Darrin. Congrats! No it wasn't exactly warm either. Started the day with frozen line and reels and made it up to around 45 maybe. I have never seen so many big fish come out of cold water as I am seeing guys catch this year. Sure is something to look forward too. Quote
