So on New Years Day, Jason decided to take Justin icefishing. He decided to take him somewhere that he has never been before. They made the long drive to Pineview Reservoir in Ogden Canyon. After only being there for a few minutes Jason had a bite on his line. He thought at first it was just a Carp because he could tell it was big, but couldn't see much more. As he struggled to pull this big fish out of the ice hole he realized it was a Tiger Muskie!! He was so excited, all his life he has wanted to catch one of these fish, but has never succeeded. After he got it out of the water he measured it and it was around 37" long and weighed about 15-18lbs. He was so mad that he didn't have anyone else with him to take the picture of him with his big catch, so he had Justin pose for him while he took the picture. Poor Justin could barely hold this giant monster. It was nearly as big as he was. But he so proud of his dad. He made me print out the picture so he could take it to school and church to show all his teachers and friends. After their first big catch of the day, they continued fishing and caught a ton of perch. Jason said that Justin caught just as many perch as he did. Jason called me later and told me that this was a sign that this year is going to be a good year. I hope he is right about that.
