Recently retired and ready to do some ice fishing.  Have missed it most of my life due to being in the Air Force and had only two good locations for it Oscoda, Michigan and Minot, North Dakota.  Look forward to running into some of you. 

Does anyone know of suitable locations around the Dayton area?  Thanks

CJ Brown Resivior, Kiser Lake, Eastwood Lake.  Did you fish Van Atton in Oscoda?  Nice Walleyes when I fished there.

Im also in Dayton so look me up when the ice gets here...( iffff...)and Eastwood has so much groundwater, its always iffy ice even when we had a foot at CJ last year but Kiser is good early ice as is Indian lake, some of the local ponds are good also.

Salmonid (Mark) sounds good will give you a holler when the ice forms.  Hoping sooner rather than later!  Have you ever tried Huffman does it freeze up; it and Eastwood are only a few miles away from my house.  Mike

Optfish; yes I did fish Van Ettan caught some good size perch thru the ice.  Mostly I fished a slew off the Au Sable did really well on large panfish and some good sized pike.
