Got out last night and again tonight.

Yesterday I fished poinsett (in SD) with a buddy in the early afternoon. We set up in 17' and fished that for a while. Didn't catch anything there, but did have a big northern circling our baits...but that didn't commit. We packed up and headed to another lake that we got a hot tip on. Got there and set up in 6' and waited. As soon as it was dark got the first eye. That was the only one we ended up putting on the ice, I lost three more right at the hole.

Got out tonight with a guy from that other forum and set up again in 6'. Right at dark we pulled the first one in. They were far between for the first bit we were there. Then at about 8pm the dinner switch flipped on and we caught 3 in 10 minutes. That rounded out our two person limit. Great night of fishing and they sure tasted good.  All of them were between 12.5" and 15".  Half of them came on jigging rods and the other half came on setlines.  But all came on red jigs.

Got out again tonight with a buddy from my dorm building.  We hit basically the same spot and had great luck again.  We brought home 5, but could have easily limited out.

Biggest of the night was a 17" eye.  Key color was red again, but caught fish on plain hooks under a tip up as well.  Setlines and jigging produced about equal numbers of fish.

Heres my 17"er



Everyone on the ice seemed to be catching fish.  Majority of the people left before the action really heated up.  Had my bobber go down and set the hook just to have my line snap right at the rod tip.  Fish was easily the biggest of the night...O well you win some you lose some.
