Connecticut > Ice Fishing Connecticut
Scouting is done, now bring on the ice!
Blaine:
God, it's good to be back and talking about ice again!
This is the first year that I will legally have access to a certain cove on the CT River for ice fishing. The land surrounding it is owned by a game club. Finally after years of trying to do it the right way I am a club member. I can now drive right to the edge of the ice and fish any time I want! We get pike over 40" regularly, big perch, cats and as you can see some awesome crappie there. Surface temps on the water this morning were 45*, we're progressing nicely down here in Ct towards first ice!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lately I've been spending some time in the boat using my side imaging to find log cribs, sunken boats and brush piles and then marking them in my handheld GPS for future ice trips. We'be been doing a little fishing along the way and have been doing VERY well on my new found structure!
Here are a couple of screen shots from my Humminbird that show the cribs and the crappie surrounding them...
Here is a sample of some of the crappie we've been catching on them...
Some from today.
Last time out a couple of weeks ago.
