What did you do today?

Got back out on the ice again. Had my friend and her 3 teens out with me. What a wild day, I'm wiped out. They're fisher people but not ice fisherman. Showed them the ropes and had a blast doing it. I bet we got 20 or more Northern PIke, lost one really good one that looked to be around 30 inches long. Our biggest landed was a 27 incher.

Once it got close to dark, I missed the only Walleye chance we had. There's so much ice it's hard to get the fishes head started up the hole, hook popped out while it was shaking that head back and forth like they do. Was a nice fat one too, guesstimated it was in the 18-20 in range. Really wanted to get one so they could see it. Out of the 4 of them only one had ever caught one and two of them had never even seen one.

Walleyes are a bastard too, seem like every time I hook one and it comes off it just shuts them right off. Like they're talking down there.

It's been a few years since I've really fished that lake and boy things do not stay the same. I can see why the law changed the Pike regulations. Never remember catching that many in one day. One guy can go get a limit of 5 pike in a couple hours, I think. Was never that many in there before.

For all the fish we caught we took home 1 10 in perch that's in my belly now. Fun day but not productive. Lost a half dozen hooks to sharp teeth too.

65f today omg 😱 Filled my empty co2 tanks

plan is transplant 1-3 more trays to 1st stage into veg room aka clone mom’s + water both rooms and any extra time goes to de-leafing the SOG, it’s a jungle and I’ll do a few plants per day and jeez u don’t even notice how much is being shaded till than. gotta stand on a stool to reach em since all the lolipop is done . Funny thing I thought till last night I didn’t need to de-leaf much more but that’s cause everything is above my head the leafs in that zone lol 😝
 
Finally finished up the bath remodel. New vanity, mirrors, lighting, and paint. Did the last of the caulking today. Ill be putting side splashes on the vanity top. Fill in the "wonky" side walls.

2200.00 total out of pocket, 1 broken finger (in 2 spots), frayed tendons in said finger, 3 migraines, and plenty of WTF's!
