We were on a pretty good school of perch in 30 FOW through the ice... The bite suddenly slacked off and about 2 minutes later I popped this big girl, who ate a 1/12oz spoon tipped with a waxworm! Was quite the battle on a little ice rod and 6lb test. Measured 23", decided we didn't need to bring a scale while ice fishing (WRONG)! Certainly didn't expect a fish like this! I probably should just start targeting panfish because that's how I catch big ones.

 

Sweet Bass and Killer Pics ~ !

There's that Mojo again . . . 

Nice way to start the new year

Congrats and thanks for sharing....

Nice fish, GREAT pic!

 

Beautiful fish...congrats. I always hear if you want to find the bass locate the baitfish.

Nice one !

You should probably just stay in school & never graduate. Your fishing success has skyrocketed while your attending college, LOL.  

Did you have to drill a bigger hole to get him through?? Nice fish 

Great bass!

Wow. I'd say that fish is well over 7 lbs. Congrats! Keep panfishing haha

Nice picture of a truly beautiful fish. It must have been one fun, intense battle.  There’s definitely no doubt that water holds good fish and we all look forward to seeing what else you pull from it in the next few months. 

That is a very nice fish , and catching it through the ice must have been a real surprise.  Congrats!   

Is that from our secret hole?  No 30fow there though...

 

I pulled a 2.5lb out of ice last weekend and that was a blast, I however did bring my scale cuzz you just never know.

 

Great fish, I bet you were shaking afterwards!
