Sodus 1-23 Report

[Finders Keepers]

On the ice solo at dark 'o' thirty today and worked the area between the islands. Ended at noon 7 for 7 on pike - most 6-8 lbs and one just shy of 10 lbs. No perch to speak of, probably because of all the pike. Some other guys across the way from me did well on pike and bass with at least 6 of each, including a 19 lb pike!! I didn't see it up close, but it looked BIG from across the ice! Will be out again tomorrow in the am until about 10:30. No ice issues with a solid 12"+ everywhere around the islands - many motorized vehicles on the ice today.

How do you know it was 19 lbs if you did not get a good look at it.

Talked to a couple guys on the way in who went over to see it and they said they had a scale that read 19 lbs. I believe it, as when I saw them taking pictures with it, the guy holding the fish had the head above his waist and the tail was on the ground. When I saw that, I said to myself, "Man, that's a big fish!". I wonder if that got sent to the taxidermist or they just sliced and diced it? I'd mount it!!
