Went out on the Gravel Pit in Jonesville on Wednesday and caught a 2.5 pound 17" bass on the tip up but no pike.  Had 3 good inches of ice in most spots but some spots looked iffy, but that was before all that snow was on the ice. I'm trying again tomorrow morning!

Hey Pike Hound,I used to fish a little lake in Jonesville but I can't remember the name,it was across the road from a private camp ground,and the c/g had a small 3 acre lake on it that we would get some crappies out of once in a while.It was in the Bunn Rd and Bacon Rd area....are you familiar with it?

there are a few lakes around there: South, middle, and north sand lakes. I've never fished them but I know they are good for panfish and have a buddy thats caught a couple 40's out of south sand. They are just west of Hillsdale but I'm not sure of a campground

Pike Hound,
Its to bad there aren't more good pike lakes around there. Baw Beese would be if you could fish it during the summer w/o 9000 jet skis and ski boats but that won't happen. Have you been back out on the ice yet? Is it still floating or did the snow push it under?

Falling through the ice means driving home naked!

went out last night towards the center of pine hill lake there is only 2 1/2 inches, didnt bother trying round lake or crispell. not enough ice for my chunky butt. be careful first icers. i am going to wait a week or two. btw tryed out my 6in lazer auger, works great.
