hello,
I am a bozeman resident and i have never gone ice fishing (idk why im kinda nervous of ice) and im feeling a bit couped up lately and wanna try my luck at ice fishing.... im just curiou about the ice thickness around the bozeman area ponds (specifically the one next to the mall). just wondering if anyone in here fishes these local ponds and what the conditions are. also, what do you use when ice fishing? i have a ice pole and plenty of tackle, just not sure if you use different bait etc.
i know i sound like a total noob but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
