Not a heck of a lot to post on this thread lately. We did put on a very successful ice fishing day up at Idabel Lake through our fish and game club (Oceola). I posted about it on another thread. The following week, Danny Coyne from bcfishn.com and I put on a day for a high school Outdoor Ed group from OKM. Fishing was slower, but the kids seemed to really enjoy it. I was amazed at how polite and appreciative the group was. Only one fish was caught in the hour and a half we were out:

If I can get confirmation that he's dropped, I'll start looking for his sheds - but I don't want to bounce him out of the area if he's still packing.

The goal of putting on ice fishing days for youth is that kids will start asking their parents to take them out. My stepson jumped at a chance to hit Shannon Lake for a couple hours last weekend. He hooked a couple that got away, but Danny managed to put a fat perch on the ice. We left before we caught any more - but the seed has been planted: Ice fishing is fun!
I wouldn't mind a dozen or so of these to fry up:

You won't find anyone catching a dozen of those fat perch any more. They're getting pretty rare in Shannon. Hard to believe...I know.

Interesting... the trout seem to be doing alright. My fishing partner caught these on Sunday.

I wouldn't eat fish out of Shannon personally but there are definitely lots of trout in there! Some decent ones too!
