Ice Fishing Take 2 -- less puckering!

Ethan and I went back down to Renforth today for another go at the smelts - the weather this week has been a bit more seasonal and we've gained a few more inches of good ice. Needless to say, it wasn't as worrysome to be on the ice with the rest of the village and we had a great afternoon!

The master smelt slayer!

A little preview of the fight I picked with bronze mallard --- you see, I have aspirations of tying a spey fly with bronze mallard wings... wish me luck!!
