Title: funny ice fishing story
Post by: snowcone on February 20, 2015, 06:12:02 PM
was at nimisilla couple days ago when it was 0 deg but sunny, I had caught a couple gills and pitched them out the door of my shanty. the heater needed a new tank so I popped the door open and surprise there stood 2 blue herons about 5 yards , there were slipping up to grab my fish, I have seen this before on mosquito but now its happening to me. so the birds had lunch on me that day buts that's ok ......even funnier when you leave and the crows drop in to see if you left any chow...

I've seen this many times, that's why I carry a plastic bag for my fish.

Had it happen to me at Nimi C5 last year. He just kinda hung out close and was waiting for me to leave. He thought I was leaving the fish on the ice and I wasn't in a shanty.

Was ice fishing Leesville 10 or so years ago for crappie and we were fishing by a underwater fall down tree. Pulled up a foot long waterdog. Weird to have a 12" salamander flopping around the shack. Pretty neat animal. We let him hang for a few minutes to watch em.

I read an article in Readers Digest about a Dog on the Ice saw a Northern swim close to a hole in the ice and the dog went in after. then the dog could not find his way back out but went under someone shanty and came out of the hole in the shanty and scared the fisherman half to death :o :o :o

Musta been one of those new breeds they dont call mutts anymore. Im guessing a muskrat terrier or fisherdoddle. I think this fish story got outta hand.

Wish I kept that article. going from memory now. I think it was a lab. I do know it would have scared the C--- out of me! if it happened in my shanty.

Would be funny to dress up like the kool aid guy and pop into shanties and yell oh yeah!!!! Or like Randy Macho man Savage and yell snap into a slimjim!!! Ok so it wouldn't be funny if it really happened but I'm at work and the imagination is wandering.
