Fished Nimmy with Eveinrude Carl Tuesday 1/30 5pm-7:30pm. Ice was in excellent condition. 7" with a little snow on top.  Hardly anyone else on the ice. Man it sure has been a tough bite this season for me. I've put in alot of hours on Nimmy ice resulting in empty bukets at the end of the day. Only 4 perch between the both of us. Another dismal outing. Very exasperating to say the least.

Maybe it's time to try a different spot or lake altogether.  I would consider a different fishing buddy also.  ;D

Carl certainly isn't the problem. In fact, he saved my arse yesterday when we reached our spot and I went to drill holes and realized I forgot the batteries to my DeWalt Drill.. ARGHHH!!!

Just having an extremely challenging time finding the fish and getting a pattern to their feeding habits.  We fished 5ft-15ft of water yesterday.  I got to thinking maybe they're in the shallows, but that didn't pan out either.  

I love ice fishing Nimmy, but man have I put in a sh*t load of hours this year trying to find 'em.  I'm almost ready to give up, but I'm stubborn.  Will most likely start hitting other parts of the lake that I haven't drilled holes.
