Czechland

[ice head]

Does anyone one know the ice conditions at Czechland?  It seems that it usually has the most ice and it seems to freeze faster than the other lakes around here.  I'm getting anxious and wanting to try somewhere this weekend.  Thanks

I wish I knew...funny...I was going on here to post the same thing.  I had a ball last time I went there.  Pulled fish out one after another last year.  I'll be curious to hear what the scoop is.  Everything seems to be up in the air for saturday still.

I'm not guessing more than 1 - 2 inches! I'll go and drills some holes out from the dock and along the south bank this afternoon! This snow really slows things down though, but we've got some really cold days ahead! A few pressure cracks to melt this snow down and we'll be in business! I'll post this afternoon to give an update!

Inever made it out to czechland yesterday but I had a friend who did and he said he couldn't even get on the ice! Too slushy and soft at the banks!

Just wondering if there were any new ice reports on czechland recently?  Thinkin about headin up there this weekend, but don't want to waste a trip if the ice isn't thick enough yet.

I checked the ice there on Saturday and most of the lake was snow covered except for part of the south side. I was really disappointed, i drilled a hole and there was not much ice at all, maybe a half an inch.  Looks like the snow is hurting us.

Well maybe with the weather we are supposed to have the rest of the week, maybe some good ice will start forming.  Might have to travel farther or just wait longer!

Czechland had 9 inches of good solid ice last night! We fished all over from around 5-10pm and iced around 50 crappie, only problem was they were all only 5-9 inches with only one fish going 10 inches! The fastest fishing was on the south side in 20 ft. of water! Up until the last couple of years the crappie averaged 10 inches, I was really shocked, too many small fish! Now this was just crappie, I don't know about the other species! Let me know if anyone finds some nice crappie out there and I'll do the same! Good luck!

I fished Czechland on christmas day and slaughtered the crappie, we lost count after a while and most of the fish were just at 10 inches and up to 11 inches, only a few smaller, had a lot of keepers.  also didn't do too bad on the gills, most of them were pretty nice.  i'll be out there most of the day saturday and sunday.  might have to put some tip-ups out for catfish, caught some nice ones there last year.

It's in Saunders County, just north of Prague, which is about 8 miles north of hwy 92 on hwy 79.

Thanks! Been out there recently?  wondering if it's any good right now.

Fished there last saturday, sunday and new years eve and did pretty good but not nearly as good as christmas weekend.  its been getting fished pretty heavily lately which might have some effect on the fishing.  During the morning and afternoon i caught a lot of nice gills with an occasinal crappie mixed in.  then right before sundown the crappie bite picked up and caught a lot of crappie that were suspended.  it seems like the last couple of times the night bite has gotten slower and slower.  Good luck!
