got there about 7:30 and by 9:30 I was walking off the ice with a limit, nothing huge but it was nice to get into them . I left that area and went over to long Island to find gills and crappies, I drilled several holes in the bay area and the ice thickness ranges from 2.5 to as much as 8" there was really no indication as to why the ice varied so much , but thats why I spud my way around. Good luck and hope to see you out there tomorrow. BTW I caught the eyes on vibes
