Jim Grouch Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Or a Mudpuppy... We caught this last weekend while out ice fishing on St Clair. It's the first time that I've seen one caught. When I took the hook out it turned towards the hole and used his little legs to crawl over to it. Pretty funny sight to see. Unfortunately it was the only thing we caught all day. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted February 12, 2010 Super User Posted February 12, 2010 That's pretty cool - through the ice! The only thing we caught last weekend through the ice were lakers, LOL. Good job getting out there! Quote
simplejoe Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 That's pretty cool, never seen one before. Anyway what's up man, it's been a little while since you've been here. Quote

How'd you ever do with your boat motor, hoping you'll make the RoadTrip this year with a little better luck. 8-) Quote
Jim Grouch Posted February 12, 2010 Author Posted February 12, 2010 Hi guys... I know it's been awhile. I've been busy getting the online store up and running and working alot. The old boat was sold after that trip. Here is a pic of its upgrade. Too bad there is 10" inches of ice and its all bundled up for the winter. Unfortunately I will not be able to make the trip this year :'( . I will be working during that time. You will all be missed. For those of you that haven't been on the BR trip then you need to sign up. It's a blast! Good people and good times. Quote
Super User firefightn15 Posted February 12, 2010 Super User Posted February 12, 2010 Looks like a sweet ride. Checked out your on-line store too. Lookin' good. 8-) Quote
quanjig Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Giant salamander. From what I understand they get much bigger than that!! Quote
Helluva_Engineer Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 I had NO IDEA they got that big. That is so cool Quote
Eternal Angler Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Yeah they are pretty abundant when ice fishing in Lake St. Clair, my brother and friend use to catch them a lot. Awful looking creatures. Quote
Super User 5bass Posted February 16, 2010 Super User Posted February 16, 2010 We call 'em waterdogs down here. Pretty freaky lookin' characters for sure. Quote
Bassnajr Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 I saw one of those in a Star Trek movie....Khan put one in Chekov's ear...and he went CRAZY!!! Be careful!!!!! Quote
looking4structure Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 WOW that thing is crazy looking. Quote
soccplayer07 Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 That is crazy looking. Nice looknig boat. Quote
Pitchinkid Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 We always called them water-dogs or Hell-benders. Supposedly they like really clean water. I chased one for about 20 minutes on a trout stream back home. It was in about 6 foot of water and i thought it was a Brown trout. They get pretty big. Around 3 ft i think. Quote
Bassnajr Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 .....and they will eat you brain!!!!!!! Quote
