Cold temps slowed down the ice fisherman to almost zero this week.. atleast during my morning drive-by observations.
Although the lake hasnt produced record catches in numbers or sizes, it has been a steady producer of putting fish in the bucket this season... gills, red-ears & crappies.
Overall, the ice fishing pressure has been non-existent. I dont think I've seen more than 3 shanty's on the ice at any one time.

Friend went out there yesterday and ice is 6 inches. With this little warm up and lack of rain it will hold into the weekend.
-
anyone know how the lake is holding up so far this week?
-
No good went for a swim today
-
Bummer!! Glad you're ok! :o How deep was it?
-
Little over knee deep, shore line is 1/2" thick, out from there top layer of ice was cracking. Was on my way out from checking it and that's when I broke through.
-
Glad your ok,hope you didn't drown your spud bar!
-
heard good ice here is this true 4-6 inches futurestrader says he is going out just want to confirm before i go up to simcoe leaving tomorrow????
-
KPI the ice is no good at Aquilla! Stay far far away and go on your little private plane trip to Simcoe. If I had your money I would throw mine out in the street and grab a lawn chair and watch everyone pick it up as I try to direct traffic. I am working on plan B to get my private flight to Alaska.

Well I would go north and offered to pay for the trip but you did not invite me so I will go to Aquila and drill a hole off the shoreline. Thanks for sticking the knife in my back.

no problem ntoice kpi and I are good friends just ribbing each other for entertainment value.

I've been out a lot more than 4 times. Gone thru about 1200 wax worms and have caught a bunch. Just got to put your time in. Last year no good this year great next year who knows. Learned a long time ago grass aint always greener on the other side and the fish aren't always biting in the lake 200 miles away.
-
Did anyone check Aquila today
-
you the man plant guy must be nice!!!!! how many times out on lake erie this year or last year???? last time i checked you dont use wax worms for walleye that is what i mean i do not like to fish ponds and when was last time you took a vechile out in ohio on the ice??? how many times ??i like erie and saginaw bay!!!!
-
futurestrader is out he should give full report when he gets home said good ice there nice nice
-
It is nice to be me. While you are driving I'll keep reeling them in. Ha Ha
all in good fun. Point is there is good ice fishing here in Ohio just got to put your time in. This is all I will post on this topic as I like to try to be a little more informative in my posts as to where and how.
-
Well I was there and in the process my pop up shanty hub broke so I am not happy about that. It hurts when you get outfished by a new IFO member too. Then coming home the suv is wiggling so there is another $1000 I can already see that bill coming. Oh and then we have the Daytona 500 on Sunday so I can hear how great KPI is at picking drivers. Other then that it was good to be in the fresh air and tangle up some rods and replace lures tonight.
-
Sounds like you had a super fun day of saving money!! ;)
-
wow did the gremlins get bored and follow you out ? :P i had a hub on my pop up go thru , so i sewed a chunk of leather in and luckily still holding couple years later,,, :P im to cheap to give it up so easy...

Had the same thing happen with my new Eskimo FatFish this year. Calling Bass Pro as I got the gear gaurd.
FYI don't buy a shanty without purchasing gear gaurd or some other insurance- I have had something break on my new shanty every year I have had one.
-
Good solid seven inches of ice out there
-
I may have to go up there midweek. Maybe I was wrong about the season being done. That ice will stick around a while. ;D
