Flat by the bridge but we've hit 3 spots covering 200 yards.

Thanks for the update.  We'll be out there tomorrow. 

Trying to figure out if I should go to the Fishing Expo on Saturday or take the gamble and hold out for ice fishing on Sunday. I don't think I can get a kitchen pass from momma for both days.

I live an hour away and have to work during the week or you would already have seen me out there. Come Saturday you will need to make room for me.

Spent 10:30-2:30 punching almost 2 dozen holes all over Lucy's Pond with no bites.  Left and headed to the east side of the lake.  No luck there either.  We'll get them next weekend.

We fished around the Richard Island area most of the day today.  Ice was generally 8 in thick.  We drilled at least a dozen holes in a number of places in this area and the ice thickness was pretty consistent.  Caught one nice crappie and a handful of blue gill.

Thanks for the info.  I've checked several maps and figured that area was mostly off limits anyways especially until I get a better understanding of moving on the ice.  I drove out there right after Christmas and saw there wasn't a lot of room to park on LI.

I'm thinking about heading up to Indian Lake Saturday morning for my first time ice fishing.  Unfortunately my ice fishing partner bailed on me this weekend. I'm still thinking about going but I want to make sure there are a few people are around. Does everyone head all the way out on Long Island or is there a place before the bridge to park.  I've read the blogs and it looks like Long Island is where most everyone goes and I will not go out on the ice by myself.
