Hit Nimmy Campground Bay on Saturday 12/21/19 for 1st ice with Evinrude58 Carl. We fished from 8am-11am. Shoreline ice was sketchy, but luckily Carl brought a board we used to get on. Ice was 2'-2 1/2" at best. We only went out 100yds from shore fishing in 5ft-7ft of water. I was fishing with large minnows & Tip Ups while Carl was after panfish. Carl caught half dozen dink gills & 1 cigar perch. I lost one nice tugger. Sun came out & shoreline ice was looking darker & darker. Deciding safety was our number one concern, we called it quits earlier than we originally anticipated., but overall it felt wonderful to be on the ice again
