Has anyone checked out muskrat or ovid lakes yet ? Planning to head up to Grayling this weekend .
I'd suggest don't push it for tomorrow, especially if you're not familiar with the lake. As warm as it was today, that could weaken the iffy ice we've got. But it will set things up to make nice ice when we get the single digit nights they predict starting Sunday. I don't want to take any chances, but it looks like I could finally get out next week!
I went out on peacock last night ice was a good 5inches on the south side of the lake the cove at the north aide was about 3 inches. Did pretty well lots of little ones mixed in though.
made it out to Interstate, along with quite a few other fellas. Bite was okay.
I was one of those fellas! Didn't notice anybody with a red beard, so I guess our paths didn't cross. I agree, okay is a good description for the bite.
Round lake in laingsburg? I was at the bait store there in wednesday and someone had a quad and shanty out on the ice. I tried little moon also on wednesday night the bite was very slow and no size to the fish. I tried cenic tonight and cuaght some crappie ill probably head to foxknoll or mud in the morning and I will let you guys know how the bite was
OldRedBeardAre you going scouting this weekend? If you do, would you like some company? I am eager, and available. Very itchy, too. Just like everyone else.I just finally got approved for posting, else I would have asked sooner!
Hell yeh dude! PM me.
How was the ice on lake interstate? Just got my first shanty and I am ready to break her in. I'm in Charlotte so that is a pretty easy lake to get to and on to.
I hit interstate from 4pm until 7:30pm. Caught 4 small ones out from the dock that is it. Lots of lite bites. I didn't move much not sure if that would have helped. I miss my Marcum I left it up north retrieving it next weekend. New Clam power drill auger was awesome, I love it. This was my first time out alone on ice, man I hate the sounds it makes when the sun goes down. I know it's good but it still creeps me out.
I dont know where everyone gets their minnows but the bait store on round lake is out of pike minnows and was running low on crappie minnows. They said they werent sure when they would get more pike minnows in becuase there supplier was out.
