Hit Hubbard valley, hoped for some gills, but I still have yet to get one, chipped half the paint off one of my favorite jammin jigs (of course the only one that I can't find on their website anymore) drilled a bunch of holes only to find I'm on 14" of ice with 8" of water under it...and to top it off, while setting a tip up I dropped my only depth finder weight which bounced off the ice...and down the hole, It found the bottom alright...

hope my luck changes hahaha

Im about to give up on bluegill, all I can catch are small bass and stocked trout (which doesn't really count cause the stocked ones are stupid and eat anything they swim past)

When you lose gear and don't even get a bite... I'd say so, wasn't a complete bust, I got to learn the lake a lot better
