CF, My dad just got home from the cowpie and they got just 1 in the sled a "bright" winter run, he also met up with a couple of his buddys that left their sled on the trailor and decided to bank fish instead good idea cuz they walked out with 3 "bright" winter run. It does not sound like it was all that bad for them. My dads day sounds like a different story. I might be going out with them in the jet sled for the first time on christmas I,ve never boondogged before if you or anybody has any tips I would appreciate some help. My dad said he broke off damn near 15 times, is this normal for this type of fishing or are they doing something wrong. I would love to go out on the boat with some helpful knowledge so I can show these oldtimer "know it alls" how to catch the fish. Thanks.
