I was on a 10 acre pond this morning from 8 til 10. 5" of ice. JUST REMEMBER THAT NO ICE IS SAFE ICE!!!  Spudded my way out with ice picks around my neck and Striker Ice Hardwater flotation suit on. Fished in 12' of water, fish were 2 to 4' off bottom. 5mm white Kenders tungsten jig with Euro Tackle Natural colored MUMMY WORM and Micro Finesse plastics. FishStyx Custom Ice rod, Aqua Vu camera, Vexilar Flx 28. Caught 30 gills and kept 15, all 8 to 9.5" and released 1 bass. Awesome first day on the ice.
