pretty good bite for me yesterday at george wyth on gills ,kept 18 , surprised that the fish in there are decent finally
No springs to worry about that I have found ever in 30 years out there. 8 inches of ice on 12/31. You can get an ATV on at the ramp and go pretty much anywhere. Caught some decent gills on 12/31 till the front moved in and the wind changed.
I have seen some strange stuff in my time, but today I witnessed something that just made me shake my head. I was on George Wyth and someone was using a large hammer, I am assuming, to try and open up holes rather than do some drilling. It was loud and and echoed though the entire lake. I almost got out of my tent to drill these guys holes so it would stop. If it sounded that bad above the ice, image what it sounded like to the fish below the ice. Thank god they left by about 9:30.
Thats almost as bad as a hunting story a buddy of mine told me. He was bow hunting and watched some idiot with a bow holding a big piece of cardboard come through the woods. I guess the guy would run a few feet and hide behind the cardboard and look around. I believe that was around the Laporte city area. I had never heard of someone doing anything dumber than that.
