got out today on the channels at snow lake. ice was 2 3/4 - 4 depending on where you drilled. caught 23 gills and a couple of crappie. if yoou head to the channels and want to go fish "hickory island" be very carefull the ice is still iffy as you head that way. It sure felt good to land a few fish. will be back out there saturday morning. will make sure to get pictures this time.
