Went to McDaniels launch and for the first time out and not knowing a whole. But managed 6 all dinks we were fishing in 19' of water. Talked to some good people all willing to help. Fish on! Be safe.

Parked at Zion walked over to MC fished from 8:30-7:00 caught over 50 fish between 3 guys (2 brand new newbies that loved it) and only one flasher. Early bite was gils, mid day was slow, dusk into dark got a hot bite with a few gils and alot of thick slab crappies. Good day overall and I know we will have 2 more guys on the forum and hardwater.

Started the day off at McDaniels in dink city. Nothing but dink gills and a few dink crappies majority of people I talked to experienced the same thing. Left there and ventured to the south end in the park and got on the X. Had to work them a little with some being super aggressive but managed a decent bag of 39 crappies 11-16”’, and a bunch of throw backs. Hopefully this warm spell doesn’t hurt the ice too bad.

Don’t know where this is but if it holds true it defies all that’s know about ice. A week of 50 degree weather and rain and it’s only lost an inch or two.

1MOFISH · « **Reply #167 on:** Feb 07, 2019, 10:35 AM »

the shady shoreline in front of the church it always holds it ice, well almost always?

The ice is strong at the end of the concrete docks. Getting 5" of ice at MC & old 422

toocheaptosmoke · « **Reply #178 on:** Feb 09, 2019, 09:51 AM »

Be careful around the creek channel that weaves through MC, I've seen it undercut the ice in really localized spots with runoff water flowing. Might have 4-5 inches, then all of a sudden be on 2".

BostonWhaler21 · « **Reply #179 on:** Feb 09, 2019, 10:54 AM »

I checked the ice at old 422, 528, and beer run launches last night at 9. Lots of open water near the shores, but ice looked solid and black out in the main channels. Cant give an ice thickness since I was too sketched to walk out on it in case I hit a rotten spot...

This is probably old news, but I'd figure I'd give out some info from what I saw.
