Who is going to the slough tomorrow?

Just wondering who is headed to Willow Slough tomorrow. I will be out there about 9 a.m. I have to drop my son off at school and then will be headed that way!

fishinator - I did terrible. Fished from 1 p.m. till about 4:30 p.m. only got 2 keepers and threw 2 dinks back. The ice was super clear 4-5" and I was only fishing in about 3 to 4 FOW. Pink was the only color I could get bites on. I talked to a lot of guys out there, most had 7 or 8 gills, although a few guys did limit out. I was fishing up front by the HQ.

Fished out in the middle today from 8 AM to about 1:30.  Probably about 30 guys out and the lake is iced over complete. 4" of clear and slick ice so cleats are a must!  There was open water the day before by the island, ducks were keeping it open so be careful if you venture there. Fishing was slow, caught about 10 small gills and 2 bass 14" and 15" that were returned. Could not get to Mormon...road is closed half way down and will not open until Monday per DNR.  Felt good just to be out !!!  Tight Lines fellows! ;)

Fished the Slough again on Saturday morning from 7 -10 a.m. Came hope with 12 nice sized gills (7.5 - 8"), 1 12 inch crappie, and 1 warmouth. I had to constantly bounce from hole to hole to get bites. I probably drilled 40 holes. I will try and post the pic on here later.

Might blast over on Thursday.  Don't catch them all.

Well finally got out to the slough today. Be CAREFUL out there guys. A guy went through the ice not too far from the shanty town. We found very questionable ice in several areas and we didn't go too far from the bank. Caught a few gills in 2 hours, but nothing to brag about. Most places the ice was 3" to 3 1/2".
