I hear you. I know there are a TON of NO TRESPASSING signs on the docks at what used to be Burch's and I'm not sure I want to head out there. I may stop at a few places and see if I can get permission to park/walk out.

Nice perch. I know of a great spot on East where you can get them like that. I wish we still had access to it...

Me and 3 of my buddies got out there at 1:30. It was the dead sea... That is until dusk. A school came through and it was all kinds of HOT action. 15 crappie, 1 perch, 1 gill... They were hammering a white Northland Bro-Bug tipped with maggots. It was cool watching the fish fly up from 9 to 5 feet after the jig... Only problem was I was the only one who caught fish... except 1... LOL! Wasn't a problem for me! LOLOLOL

From 12/30/10. Slow day but we had fun.

Nice video. I need to either get a bigger shirt or lose some weight... LOLOL.

We got out a little late... About 9 or so... Got a few crappies, saw a bunch but they wouldn't hit. Lots of lookers.

I think next week I'll be out before dawn and going to stay all day. I want to explore that lake.

I'll be meeting up w/ a few guys at Mogadore B&T around 7:30 Sunday AM then we're heading to Wingfoot. Look for the large blob of orange camo... That'll be me. LOL.

See you on the ice.

Got sort of a late start this AM but made it out on the ice with my son Nick. 4 to 5 inches of ice. Set up in around 6 FOW and immediately started pulling bluegills. We ended up with 60+ fish (lost count) but most were dinks. Did get a small pike or muskie... had no marks on it so I'm thinking muskie. Moved around a couple times but could only weed out 12 or so keepers. All fish were released.
Great day to be out. There were 8 or 10 others out too. Silver was the hot color, along with chartruse. We used wax worms.
