What a jewel Nimi is.......Sat outside the shanty for the first time in ages and got to see several (3) Bald Eagles. Add a few perch into that and it was quite a day.

Hit the ice on the SR43 side after church yesterday. I struggled getting anywhere due to the ice conditions. Although safe, the footing was horrible on account of a thin frozen layer above slush. Where I ended up I managed a plethora of dinks with a few nice ones thrown in.

Did you do any good out there? I wouldn't mind going down and trying for the saugeye but from where I live it's a fairly long journey for a happen stance effort.

I've had decent success using one of those Styrofoam crappie lights. The ones that are for sitting on top of the water. The draw back to one of those is you have to take a battery with you.

Check Craigslist....I just went out there and saw quite a few of them.

I have fished Ohio Power many, many years ago. We did fairly well through the ice down there. Be careful though....those are old strip pits and some of the ice can be thinner in areas. We took ice picks for safety purposes. I wouldn't go alone.

Here's the deal on leaving fish on the ice......it's illegal. If you get caught by the warden, they invoke the same regulation as cleaning fish on the lake and throwing the scraps back into the water.

Be careful out there. I was heading out on CLR yesterday and went in up to my knee. I presume it was someone with a spud bar making their holes entirely too big. That one ended my day before it began.

I did a drive-by yesterday at Palm and Congress Lake Rds. Palm was completely locked as well as the east side of Congress Lake Rd. The west side of Congress Lake had an open spot at the culvert.

I like the solitude and quietness of ice fishing. And in addition to that, most folks out there are true fishermen. True fishermen are ethical, friendly, and like to keep the environment cleaner than what is was when they got there. I've never met a true fisherman I didn't like.

I have Mora 6". I'm on my second year with the same blades and they still cut great. This year it really got a workout too. One of the key things to remember is to not bang it on the ice. Once a blade gets the tiniest burr in it, it will plane upwards. Just lay the auger blades on the ice and let the rotation do the work.

I hear ya fishingful. When I got there the road was frozen and I had no problem getting in. I came out of there last night at 6:30. I was in my car. A compact Hyundai. I'm still a nervous wreck and very thankful I made it out of there. The problem was this guy in a 4x4 was 4 wheeling up and down the road all afternoon. Joy riding slinging mud.

Fished a couple hours yesterday on SR 43 side. Bite was slow, only caught a few and couldn't stay long. I've met some of the nicest folks out there over the last few time out. Everyone seems so willing to share, help, ect. Ice fishing........there is no substitute.
