We fished Long Island yesterday. Lot of gills, a few crappies, three slob perch and even a 1.5 lb bass. Ice was good everywhere we went, 6-8". I did see one guy walk over Pony Island to get to that channel. Don't know if he caught any. Ice jigs with wax worms was all we used. A couple people did go over the Northfork side. Water is muddy on that side though. Once we started catching them people started crowding around us and the noise slowed the fishing down. One guy even was using a hatchet to open holes to fish.

Buddy of mine drove by Long Island yesterday and he said that by the bridge where everyone parks has new NO PARKING signs on it. I know they usually have a few signs up but he said they are posted all over. I asked a warden couple years ago and he said we could park there. This happens every year. I think its the locals that are putting the signs up, in a way I can't blame them with all the trash that is left in the parking lot.

Ohiofisher, would that be on Indian Lake? I am off work Friday and want to hit Indian but don't want to drive over 70 miles one way and not be able to get on the ice. Thanks.

5 of us tried to get on the ice at Long Island this morning. They checked before I got there and said their spud bars went in after one or two hits. This was off of the barge away from the edges. The edges had open water. I would think IF you could get away from the bank you could get on the ice but we didn't try it. I would bet some guys did get on after we left but no one was on it while we were there. Then we tried Aschesons and it looked bad. Again one hit with the spud bar through the ice. Next went to Blackhawk. One side had a little open water by the docks. So we went on the other side. Ice was around 3" clear hard ice. We only went out about 50 yards from the edge. Ice would crack as you walked. We stayed about an hour and only 1 eye and 1 crappie. Marked a lot of fish but not many takers. They could have been shad. Lot of small shad froze in the ice. It will be a week or two before I drive an hour to try to get on Indian again.

Doesn't Delaware have docks or do they pull them for the winter?

About 5 of us are headed up Friday. Hows the parking at Long Island? Same thing every year, they have signs up at the bridge that says no parking but everyone does. Also, does it look like North Fork will have good ice? I have a buddy going to Indian Wednesday so hoping to get a good report from him.

6 of us went o Erie on Sunday. Went out by A can. Started out slow and we had to move three times until we found them. We ended up with 12 keeper eyes. Everyone at least caught one. We had 6 Fish Ohios. I caught my personal best, a 14 lber. She was a hog. Most were caught on swedish pimples, gold or silver. Great day to be on the ice but I think that wil be my last trip out this year.

I know a guy that fished Achesons today and he did really well on some big gills and crappies. Lot of little gills to sort thru but it was worth it. Also he picked up a few perch. He moved around a lot and caught fish about everywhere. He said the ice was still fine.

Well that's it for LSC. 6 of us fished three days and only dink perch to show for it. I kept 15 "keeper" perch Saturday but ended up giving them to an older gentleman on my way off the ice. We tried a lot of different places and moved all over different depths. Water was so clear I was fishing in 9' of water and could see bottom. Didn't see many keepers swimming around. Did see a 4.5-5' muskie come swimming by. One day we tried for coho and we caught one and missed 6 others, So next year we will look for somewhere else to go to . We fished Houghton a couple times, three years at Presque Isle and now three years at LSC. I think next year we will try to plan a Lake erie trip if we get good ice. On a side night on the way back from LSC I stopped at Erie and went out with 5 guys. We caught some really nice eyes. 6 fish Ohios and my PB, a 14 lber. I'll post pics tomorrow. We caught them out by A can in 24' water. I was using a gold #7 pimple tipped with minnows.

Thanks fool4fish. Appreciate the help. If we don't do good there this year it will be our last trip up there. Last three years has really been bad. We could have done better at Indian in half the time.
