I was targeting walleyes, but this is all I could come up with.  The ice was 3".

I ended up with three and one cisco.  My brother caught one little walleye and six silvers.  I have NEVER caught a walleye, so I'm on a "major mission".   :D

Jodilynn,

Are you sure it was a cisco?  ???They are coldwater fish like a trout. Don't survive the summers in a body of water that doesn't have cold well oxygenated water. Never heard of them south of some of the natural lakes in northern Indiana.

I was trying to recall what my brother called it.  Maybe a drum, then.  It was about 6 or 7" and boy did it stink.  What ever it was, he told me I didn't want that.  LOL

Nice fish.  At least you're getting out and spending some time on the hard water.
Keep gunning for that big WALLEYE!

Good Luck,

Rob

Gizzard shad?
There is only one theory about angling in which I have perfect confidence, and this is that the two words, least appropriate to any statement, about it, are the words "always" and "never."

they are in there Jodilynn....keep jigging for them and you will bust one. We got some last year but the size just wasn't there. I think I can tell where you guys were on Kokomo. How far from the island were you?
Never tell a fish where its supposed to be

Shad was exactly what he said.  Thank Fish_Tko!

South of the island, near a cove on the west side.  A young guy caught a 17" walleye near us.  He was really excited and said he was shaky.  LOL   I was soooo happy for him.

10 min. while waitin on the walleye. Passes the time!! ;)
