Jake and I setup about 1.5 hours before some of his little friends joined us.
Lots of action and as soon as I set the 5th trap it was non-stop fish.
This is about 1/3 of them here...
His friends came to ice skate and decided to fish for a few hours instead.
They all caught their 1st fish, 2nd fish, 3rd , etc...
It was a good day!
After setting the hook and handing the line to one of the kids, she told me take it was too big, so I yanked this Bad Larry from the hole.
It broke the line just as I got it to the hole and I dove in to pulled it out - Big fun...
The look on the kids faces was priceless!

Looking good with a bunch of fish and kids.
Always impressed by the perch size in your lake. I assume the Big Larry is a pickerel. Why the big Larry name?

Bad Larry - Not sure of the origination, but may be an East Coast/North East/NH thing...
Means something like;
Ed says - "Wow, did you see that 1969 Boss 429?"
Jason says - "the owner just opened the hood, let's go check out that BAD LARRY!!!"
Those Perch (all but one - which was not in the pic) where somewhat smaller today.
Yes - that's a chain Pickerel...
What was hilarious is the kids thought I reached in and caught the fish with my bare hands.
They couldn't comprehend that the line broke - there eyes were as big as saucers :lol:
I think they believe I am the Great White Bwana

Awesome Ed! You may have created some new outdoors people . Looks like I gotta take a trip to NH and fish with you.
A buck will see you three times, and hear you twice, but he's only gonna smell you once.

Ok get it now. That the saying was just for the fish.
Bet it came from the St Lawrence River system.
I know quite a few guys call it " the Larry".

I might be ready to fish by then. Still cleaning up my sisters burnt house. But a little fishing does sound like fun. I wonder what a NH non res fishing license is? I already buy a NH saltwater license.
