Thanks guys................These are stocked fish...they are retired brood stock atlantics from both the palmer hatchery in MA and the white river hatchery in VT. I had an article on the fisherie in the November OTW. They are a blast thru the ice and are very easy to catch durring hard water. The bigger ones(fish over 10lbs) are even more fun. I got a couple more today which were much nicer looking. One of them had all it's fins at almost 9lbs it probably came from our own hatchery in Palmer...they usually release the bigger and nicer looking fish.....It was nice to finally get out of that wind from yesterday, today was warm.
