Also a reminder to spud your way out, although the ice was solid all the way out to 77fow for me there were some monster holes that people had spudded out.  Like Iam talking 16-20in diameter holes.  I didnt my best to put the ice chunks back in any of the ones I saw so it will freeze back up quicker but it will still take time for it to be 100% soild.

I was out yesterday with couple of friends. We were in 100 feet of water. It was very slow.
I ended up going  1/2, seen only other 2 fish landed few hrs we were there.
I caught it on a bucktail jig (Blue head, white and black fur) tipped with a dead shiner.
We were able to mark fish all day long they just werent really biting
Here are few pics

My first ever Laker


It was a beautiful day out there

Well guys the morning view at 9:30 from my lookout is 4guys including two clams, I imagine anywhere from 40-70 fow out from the ramp. Watched one guy head toward opp. Shoreline from ramp. Was not there long and headed back where the others were so I can't imagine the ice is good there yet. Tread carefully guys. Looks slushy out there now but with cold temps tonight, everything should tighten up nicely. Myself, I'm gonna give it another day or two. Let's see some posts if you guys out are on here.

I was out this morning at first light and can say that there was only 3 inches of black ice with 2 inches  of crappy white ice on top @ 90FOW.  Lots of marks but nothing wanted to play and at the 3 hours mark I headed off to another lake for bluegills.

Great day out there today! Well worth battling the cold, my buddy and I landed 3 trout around 3 pounds. Probably marked 20+fish from 9am-12. Hoping to get out for a few hours again tomorrow

I wish I would have checked the thread before going out this morning because I think we were set up near a couple of you guys and would have come by to say hi.  Was that you MegaRam playing fetch with the dog?
Hope you guys had some luck out there it was a little slow for me, went out for 3 hrs and went 1 for 1.  Had a couple other chasers but that's it.  In all fairness I didn't put too much of an effort in, it was a little cold so just stuck in one area most of the time. A nice clean 3lb eater. Got it on the old standard, white tube. In approx 92 fow.

Hey JZ,
Yeah that was me.  I stayed to 1330 and marked about 20 fish, and no takers. They did come off the bottom about a foot or two but nothing higher then that. 
I might go to Dog lake tomorow or thurs. ( not sure yet ) depends on the severity of the hang over. lol..

Till Next time....

I was in the clam kind of in the middle of everyone....... the 2 guys that pulled on the auger for 15 minutes... anyways... we marked 10 or so fish....no bites... and they barely came off the bottom with the exception of 1 that came up about 5 feet.  Went and caught some crappie in the afternoon.

I was out this morning for a bit, it was very slow... As others have already said, I marked very few fish and the ones I did mark were very lethargic...
Oh well a slow day of fishing is still better then a good day at work, next stop BOQ for some walleye fishing....

Nice, where you planning on going on the BoQ?  I've only fished off of Point Anne...
