Appreciate that Tony.....I'm really hoping you guys will have a great year on the ice.....as harsh as the summer has been on so many folks.....I didn't know squat about hard water fishing until I learned from the members here......I like it when you guys are doing good in the winter because it helps me get through my down months......Good luck up there Ice Fishing Tony!

No doubt that Jeffey has some prime water available to him, still, I would miss my winter Bluegillin'......I'm already getting primed for the cold water bite!

I think I'll stay put and just admire his catches from afar.. Go get em' Jeffrey!

I've lost quite a few of those fishing bets over the years Jim....I once invited a fellow service member to fish in a Bluegill tourney on Santee-Cooper back in the early 80s....Dwight explained he hadn't fished very often.....I said just follow my lead and we'll give it a shot...Didn't win that tourney and lost biggest fish to Dwight and total number to him as well....One of those days that you settle for the joy of fishing and that's fun too....

If you knew the 'real' Jim Gronaw you might hesitate!

I went 0-7 on bass strikes last night on a new frog lure I am trying. Meanwhile, my wife Linda caught six bass and lost a couple big fish on the StankXStix. Needless to say, I had to pay for a late super at McDonalds!

I'LL PUT UP BOTH HANDS AND WISH I HAD MORE TO PUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!! HEY JIM can you imagine how many fish are ahead for Sir Jeffrey because of his tender young age!!!! It's a good thing for the gill population there is only one of him for the east coast!!!!
