Ha, a Soufer gets the first report in. :lol:

Managed to hook 12 rainbows on Sunday, two being about the size of the one pictured, and the remainder in the 7-10" range.

I lost, in the hole, what would have easily surpassed my PB rainbow of 22.5". Didn't realize how big the thing was, until I saw it come past the hole, and then I about flipped. Once I got it's head in the hole, it certainly would have taken both hands to grab it around the neck. Snapped it off with it's head just barely out of the hole.

We had 8 inches on Johnson lake in Kasilof, Alaska. Johnson is a fairly small lake (few acres), only about 8 feet deep, which has no creeks entering or leaving it, and no warmwater springs below it, so I've been told it has safe ice sooner than anywhere else in the area (Kenai Peninsula, Alaska).
 
Boooo! Alaska is cheating! :lol: I think you get far enough north up there and water doesn't even bother to thaw..

Nicely done, Bassboy1! =D>
