I started ice fishing those ponds at the age of 3 with my grandfather, a lot of good memories, filling 5 gallon buckets with big crappie and gills, and watching grand dad catch monster bass and musky on tip ups. I haven't fished them in years, they are strip pits so be careful if you do venture out. I would love to take my kids there one day to fish and listen to the memories. Good luck and be safe.
