Hello Dumpster and welcome!

I had  to laugh when you said about telling  someone about the fishing. Some people are insecure  and will not help an other angler. Had  that happen  the other day to us. Buddy saw  these guys  doing much better  than us. He walked over  and asked what  was  the magic lure and the volunteered a small blue /white Vibe. OK Great. While he was standing there another hookup. Guy  slowly binging  the fish up almost seemingly  wanting to lose it. It  did not come off and low and behold a big gold  spoon.

We always help other on hard water and on  the rivers for steelhead. To us that gives another type of satisfaction  that those  kind of people have not enjoyed yet.

I   do not leave it uncover anymore  also. Touched  the blade one time a nd it tok forever  for it  to stop bleeding. Not a serious cut but like a deep paper cut. Also saw a guy cut his boot from kicking  the  auger. 
Also it seems to keep  the ice  off of it.

Fished out of Snodgrass friday. Farther out 6/10 of a mile it was 7 inches. In closer it  was  at least 12. Wish  I would  have  had a power auger.

Snow blew in to  the PA side  with  the wind but not a problem

If  you fish Erie in the soft water.  Try Sheephead  that  way. Only  the smaller white  ones  not  the bigger  brown  ones.  You  would  be  surprised. I know  they get a bad rap. Maybe  you  do not  remember  when they  use  to give  away  or  throw out  chicken wings!!

I have  the FL-8  and  use a Little Playmate cooler. Mounted  the unit on  the flip top. The 7ah battery  leaves plenty of room for lure box or two and maps, Auger blades and still some  room.

very  basic  rule......follow tracks,,,,do not  make  tracks. If  they  disappear,,,,,STOP!!!

If you are not  sure be cautious so you   can  fish  tomorrow.

My  first time out I had a life  jacket on inside my suit. Looked like a Blue  Michelin man.
