Had a great trip with the family and friend Ed Gravley for a couple days of ice fishing.  The first day pike fishing was extremely slow.  We only landed four pike.  We had several hits including three strikes and misses in a row.  Sunday morning we woke up to 25 degree temperatures and the bite was on.  We landed several pike including a 48 inch fat beautiful fish, which we released,  that stripped nearly 30 yards of line and burned Ed's finger.
