MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
Alright fellas! Here's the skinny on what I found today. Good news and bad news. The lakes/ponds that were already locked up before the snow have about 3/4" of clear and 1/4" of crap with only about an inch of snow on top. Not too bad. The lakes/ponds that are open/half open got nice and cooled down by the snow that fell. I personally will be on the ice (if not tomorrow) by thursday for sure. Here's a list from start to finish of the places I checked today.Sharp Park Pond (behind lansing mall) - fully locked up about 1" of clear, with crap on top and snow.Dell Road - Completely openHawk island - Completely OpenCrego - 2/3 locked up, about about 3/4" with crap and snow on top. (ill be hitting crego first on wednesday/thursday)*decided to travel a little north on a whim*Reed Park - (in Ithaca) About 1" of clear with crap and snow on top (my second spot ill be heading to)Motz Park - (little clinton) about 1" of clear with crap and snow on top (my third spot ill be hitting)Tomorrow I'll be checking Burchfield Pond, Interstate and MAYBE Lake Aliance.I am crazy and am willing to tip toe my 170 lb butt out there on 2-3 inches. Do not take my ice reports as an advocate to go out there. If you do decide to head out, let a friend or two know where you're going, what time you'll be on and off, bring a spud bar and picks, and maybe a cute little pool noodle to bury the hatchet! Even with the little warm spell this weekend, I think we're in for a slightly earlier than usual ice season. Keep your fingers crossed and your butt puckered for us crazyguys! I'll keep everyone posted!!!
i used to drive past lake interstate all the time never stopped to fish it.
Nice gill! How thick was the ice?
Does anyone know what the deal with the lake behind soccer zone is?
Went to Dick's in Lansing today. I see why there called Dicks. Not only didn't they have anything but also didn't have anybody who knew anything. Anybody know where I can get light weight braid spooled?
Was checking lake ovid 4 inches half way to island from boat launch . I will back tonight trying my new toy,s
I'm going to go to Crego tomorrow around noon. Then maybe to Muskrat or Ovid. I want to catch enough to stink up a frying pan. I really do want to play with the drill auger, and the Garmin fish finder I bought last winter, but barely got to use. The Garmin worked great on my boat this summer. I switched it over to Ice setup, but haven't been able to find it's split screen normal/flasher mode again. Time to go search YouTube. I know it does both at once, and it looks nice. The PX Store on Logan, and S. Penn Meijers both have Waxies. I got 9 dozen..- Joe 5 Oh 5 twenty 25
