The ice fishing gods were looking down on Dunham Lake yesterday for the Super Sunday ice fishing extravaganza with blue skies and mild temperatures. The fishing started strong with Gus getting a nice size pike off of his tip up within the first hour but after that, besides a few nibbles, the fish didn’t hit until later in the day when the second pike was produced; that one a whopper (see Jim and Gus trying to weasel into the picture). The lack of fish didn’t stop the celebration of friends, food, and beverages. On the food platter were some brats, venison wraps, wings, and of course, the cheese ball/loaf. I don’t think anybody can claim any donkey-ness this year unless I was the one riding (I claimed the prize a few years back). Kudos go out to Jim for winning the 1st touchdown pool and Al/Roger for winning the Bruce Springsteen wager (I thought “Born in the U.S.A.” was a no brain-er for first song).
