Once we get the ice we need,where are you going first? I will be heading out to good old Nimisila,for crappies and gills,but i have plans of going to Sandusky Bay for some BIG crappies,when ice permits.

Same here. Whatever freezes first to 3-4 good clear inches that's where I'll be.  ;D

I heard people are already out on Indian lake(long island). There can't be more than 2 inches of ice. Can anyone confirm? WAY too thin for me!

Just like the last few years, Nimmy will be my "Go To" lake. I may hit some of the Portage Lakes Chain (East, North, Turkeyfoot) and would really like to hit Mosquito a time or two also.

I spend most of my time on Indian but I'm headed wherever there is good ice. I can usually only fish weekends so I'll take whatever I can get. And Bruce it would not surprise me if people were out on Indian. They pushed their luck at the end last year so why would they be any more cautious this year? I'll wait.

If I wasn't working I would have been there yesterday. If you know how that lake freezes it's not bad. That's my local lake so hopefully next weekend.

Indian is my go to first ice lake.  We don't have a lot of choices in southwest Ohio without a lot of travel time. If we get ice by next weekend, will look forward to meeting up with anyone going to Indian.

Is there such a thing as Ice Fishing stalking? - I'm planning on tagging along with whomever is going out. 1st year on the "big" lakes so hoping to find partners.

Andy, ice fishing is pretty much a social event. Once anyone spots someone on the lake, they will have twenty people around them in an hour. Lol. Anytime I go out, anyone is welcome to join.
