    Not sure where you are from. Your location is not filled out.  But you dont have to go to far north to find good ice...    @)

I think I may head out with my 4 y/o daughter tomorrow, she has been begging me to take her ice fishing.  She's a trooper but will wait til mid morning to head out there.
I prefer a 2oz sinker for perch...when it hits 'em they won't feel a thing

 Yo Yo...stopped by the north end today at around 3pm.. i counted 9 shanties on the bay near the damm. i talked to a guy who was just getting off, he saiid the ice was a good solid 6inches. he said no worries at all. saw some guys out near the narrows(i think they were just checking it out) as all the shanties were close together. i then went to the main lake understandly no one was on the main lake. but it sure did look like it was getting close. i think im gonna hit the north end tommorow(i much prefer the main lake) but hell ill take any ice right now..i am sure that by this weekend their will be a SHANTYFEST out there as it will get crowded.......so fellas   'LET THE GAMES BEGIN"..............LATER...
