I was thinking about hitting Hamilton, never fished it.  Besides The Angler where is the closest bait shop?  Can you get minnows near the Lake?

Hole in the wall if he's open. (50 feet SE of the 4 way stop in town) or Got Worms (Just north of the stop light in Waterloo on 427)

Hole in the Wall has minnows, and if he is not open, he has had his phone number on the store front and will come down and open if the hour is reasonable I suppose.  He must live real close because it was 2 minutes after I called that he showed up. 
Not sure about the main lake ice thickness, but the bays and channel areas are at least 6".

got worms is sold out and he is expensive as hell this year cost me over 9 bucks for 4 dozen minnows and about 2 dozen of them were big enough for tip ups

north of shag, there are two points and a hump that just have to be good.  no parking there and never wanted to walk that far.  i really need to get the wheeler tagged one of these years.
