I have ice fished for the last 5 years and did all right. I picked up an old an old Vexliar FL8 this year. Wow, how did I ever ice fish without this.
I caught 25 last night on a 1 acre pond in Cardington. 6"OF ice, 6 gills over 8" one crappie over 12" I went to a 3 acre pond today. 6" of ice.  We kept 74 gills over 8" put more than that many back. Best day ice fishing ever! It was like playing a video game. If your not using electronics you need to get one. All caught on 1/32 oz jigging spoon with # 14 treble tipped with wax worm. I will be going back out tomorrow. Will let you know how it goes. Good luck everyone!

Checked the ice at the boat ramp around 4:30 p.m. today. The ice at the foot of the ramp is angled down about a foot. 3-4" thick cloudy ice. out about 3 feet at the edge of the level ice was a little thicker with black ice on the bottom. Pretty sure it would hold me to check out a little further but I was by myself and nobody else around so I didn't chance it. There are new 2' steel pillars they put in for the new docks. looks fishy to me. Anyone ever ice fish this. Any idea about the depth?
