I'm sorry but that's kinda funny.

I don't know if you remember a couple years back I tried fishing out my sixline (who is far too clever to fall for a trap). First of all I felt like an idjit at the fishing store asking for ONE 1/4" hook but baiting it with mysis was .. well, interesting in itself AND I caught everyone at least once ... except for the sixline.

He was far too suspicious of the mysis on a string. "Ooh, I want that ... but something about it is off. Here tang tang tang, come check it ouuuuuut" And of course the tang was all too happy to oblige. "Hoboy! A mysis on a STRING! YAY!" ..

I thought about doing that too as I am a fly-fisherman and know how to tie flies. I know I could match the hatch and have an ice fishing ultralight rod and reel. I just thought I would get flamed hard for trying to "hook my fish" (I would go "barbless)

Was that the frag I was eyeballing at RC that day? Glad I didn't pick one up as well, I'm sure my goldflake would love another "tasty treat". He's done the same with a bubble and a donut already.....could end up with a FOWLR at this rate

How you like the Tunze's ?

Cut the ribbed end off the bottle, Makes the tunnel more invisible and you will have MUCH more luck!!!!! They seem to be more hesitant to enter with the ribbed end on. (Other than the stupid wrasses) Trust me trial and error after 5 days proves my method works! And try a mirror in the back as well. REALLY it makes a difference. Only I would only leave it in there if someone will be home - cuz I caught all my fish and had alot of catch and release to do!
Good luck!

just get him a tim hortons coffee and maybe a donut put it in there, and you'll get him in no time..

My bi-color is still in the tank

Admittedly I havnt been trying that hard to get him. There has and will be a couple large fish orders at the shop. To avoid any temptation to bring anything home I figured a full tank is best. I did a water change and glass clean today so while things are looking good I snapped a few pics.
