spent the day on the ice yesterday, all day long no bite, late afternoon and in to the darkness things started to changs.
about 2 hours before dark the gills started hitting slowly but they are of decent size. as the sun sat over the horizen (though we could not see it because of dence clouds) the crappie started hooking up with regulairity. making for a pleasent evening.
I was not fishing for crappie just gills, and when the sun light was gone so were the gills and thus my fishing action as well, I stayed there for two hours after dark watching my buddies fish, They were down right comicel fishing with 2 poles each and out of reach of each other.
they pulled in a good share of crappie but missed as many as they caught. one pole would get a strike and they would run to grab it then the other pole would get a strike, It whent on like this the whole time I was there and I am sure that it continued like that after I left. same guys that lost a pole to the fish yesterday.
