Worked West Branch 9:30am - 1:00pm. Maybe 8 others there.
Ice wasn't too bad by the edges and held a steady 3-1/2" as far out as I drilled.
Nothing to show for the effort. No flags and nada jigging.
Couldn't even manage a suicidal perch!
After this week's predicted cold, at least the options will improve!

Hit Blue Lake in Sterling Forest today.
There were about a dozen guys out there, plenty of room.
Tested my drill powered auger adapter..using a NiCad 18 volt and six inch auger I was able to get 20-25 holes. Did not keep the battery warm, had a spare but never went to it.
On the ice aroud 1:15pm, off at dusk.
My buddy landed a nice 24" Pickerel on tip up. And a nice 9 3/4" Crappie as well as numerous Gills and one nice Yellow Perch.
I landed about 20 Gills, some at 9" and some smaller, including some dinks and only one dink Yellow Perch, using a Trout Magnet tipped with a Wax Worm
The bite really turned on around 3:30pm.

Oh, and this little guy...

Anyone making it out on Sylvan? I know it was still locked up but lost a lot of ice with the recent thaw. If it's not safe now it should be towards the end of this week with these temps coming up.

Sylvan is locked up... saw someone drilled a hole about 15 from the dec launch but no others i say there was about 2.5 inches... no wet spots anywhere on the fresh snow so im thinking by sat. it should be ok...

coorslight....i dont think youre allowed to fish for trout with dynamite !!!!!

you are in Carmel and there is plenty good trout water there
any of the reservoirs are good for trout....some better than others but most produce good trout ....
Good Luck !

Thanks for the update, I'll get there to check it out later this week and hopefully get some holes drilled. I was so excited to get on there until the last warm up. I'm not complaining too much, I've kept myself busy fishing LG catching my first laker and then Oneida for eyes. Maybe losing some local ice was a blessing in disguise

It's been a long time since I fished Chodikee. I remember lots of nice size bass and plenty of panfish. I've never fished it in winter. Do you do ok there?

greensider · « **Reply #6321 on:** Jan 21, 2014, 06:02 PM »

iceman67 · « **Reply #6322 on:** Jan 21, 2014, 06:23 PM »

Fished chodikee yesterday bunch of bass a 28" pickerel some smaller pickerel about 10-15 crappies. Lots of ice just stay away from the big beaver hut

I know it is going to be solid as ever when I give it another go very soon

... I do have a request for any moderators about this site.. First I like to ask the others who post here, what do you feel about seeing the first (oldest posts) on this thread when you log in

I mean, to me it is quite silly to have to see old posts from previous seasons and having to click to get to most recent posts.. mind that I tried several different settings /preferences .. under my profile to no avail.. still see characters such as " pooley" and the likes who obviously aRE NO LONGER on this thread... so I ask the moderators to at least clear the old posts dating back the previous seasons .. what do others posting here regularly say?

No leave the old stuff all you need to do is click on this

and it will bring you to the latest post! It all the way on the right side when you are looking at all the threads

Also stopped at wards since I was in the Newburgh area and he didn't even have what I needed.... I guess nobody carries P-line flourocarbon leader material anymore

I do not see anything on the right that deletes very old topics dating back to a time when those subscribers were valid,, I asked the moderators to remove all invalid subscriptions to remove what appears to be clutter when I log on.. I tried every feature to do it myself.. besides 317 posts is enough even for NSA data mining lol..
