Herring Hurricane

With nicer temperatures in the forecast, we got up early and made our way out onto the ice of the big lake. It was still pretty frosty in the morning but it was suppose to be much warmer by afternoon.

As soon as we setup there were already large schools of fish moving through and the action was about to start. As schools of herring moved in, we were able to pick off multiple fish including coho salmon mixed in. The schools were large and stuck around for a long time providing us ample opportunity to hook up with fish.

Pretty soon we had a pile of fish on the ice.
