Great way to start the morning.
« on: Jan 25, 2020, 06:16 AM »
Beauty day so far, dragging through the snow and slush is a little rough but not enough ice for the wheeler where I'm at yet, despite the tracks I'm walking on... wonder if dude bothered to check and see hes riding on 3 black and 2 white... Now to fill the pail with crappie for dinner...

Good luck out there but be careful. I fished local yesterday with Bamb308. I drilled a hole that had 9" of ice. Took 40 paces and drilled another hole that had 6" of ice. There was a lot of variation in the ice thickness that I saw in a small area anywhere from 5"-9".

Thanks guys, ice is sketchy but it'll do... no crappie yet but the Larry's are cooperating, heck of a fight on ultra lite and 3 pound test...

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day teach him how to fish and he will sit there and drink all day!!

Started pouring around noon and bailed out, crappie weren't interested in what I was offering but the bass were happy to oblige... a few decent ones...




Jezzabelle was having no part of the slush and rain...

Some winds too...
Nothing crazy, but where it opens up, it’s gonna get broken up too. Not good. Be careful fellas!

Nice photo stealth!

The ice is all whacked right now. I was on a 2 trap lake with 5” of good ice. Punched a long line of holes along shore for rainbows, and one spot was maybe 1.5”.

I saw the same thing yesterday I lost 3" of ice in 40 paces. No way I would have an ATV or sled out there right now and I am afraid it is going to get worse before it gets better.
