Anyone going out tomorrow morning???

Just a heads up, odonnells does not have any bait and they are hoping to have maggots/wax/shiners by tomorrow evening

Just called around to a few places and looks like no one has bait until tomorrow evening

Headed to Shannon in the morning baitless.

Definitely 2 access points to the lake from the church parking lot. You won’t miss the lineup of vehicles.

Thank you for letting everyone know..Good news to hear😁

Icefishingjames · « **Reply #53 on:** Dec 28, 2022, 06:49 PM »

2+lb crappie

Icefishingjames · « **Reply #54 on:** Dec 28, 2022, 07:16 PM »

Bass/pike sounds fun to catch! I took my retired parents out today, but all I know how to catch is a bunch crappie! I set some tip ups out , but we only mustered 1 bass. We must be in the wrong part of the lake

40 years of ice fishing and this is the first time a yellow depth gauge went down down the hole. (I’ve always owned orange ones) As soon as I brought it up off the bottom this 17” one nailed it. Pic is a little misleading. The grub stinger hangs a foot below the treble hook.

Lucked into a nice school of crappie up Shannon's Dam today. Brought home 14 fish, with the biggest at 14 inches. Most around 10 or 11 inches. Measured about 7 inches of ice. Too bad most of that will be ruined next week.

Damn I never thought to use a depth gauge😎

Nice James! Did you take her home or send her back?

jaeger80 · « **Reply #59 on:** Dec 29, 2022, 06:53 AM »

The Weather Channel claims its 35 here, but I live near there lake and the truck said 26. Should tighten up the top melt from yesterday.
