Bet that shanty smelt pretty bad when you were done with it.

we did a double a couple of weeks back, fishing was slow.....beers were not. Ended up taking aheader at 3:00 AM and landing square on my head on the ice(No it wasn't because of the beers)....saw stars I hit so hard. picked up about 40 of the tender little morsels.

geesh, 40 isn't slow....

4! is slow. and thats what we got about 3 weeks ago.

40 in 12 hours is slow....sometimes if you hit them right you can pick up 2-300 in a single tide. one guy with us actually got skunked

4 is painful....hope you had plenty of Frosties and sandwiches to kill the time
