Tried to catch some crappie with my girlfriend and her two boys off of Howard rd but only had a few bites with another few lost minnows. The boys were bored and complaining, which stinks because it was their first time on the ice. The good thing is the girlfriend said she enjoyed herself and would do it again. She was fishing and using the Humminbird. I taught her how to properly read it and she was having fun seeing the few fish that came through. I think if we would have stayed a little later the bite would have turned on some. There were only a few other guys out there and they didn't have much to show for their time either.
I hope this warm spell doesn't mess the ice up to bad. If it rains and gets windy it may.
BTW, I want to thank CRV a ton for hooking me up with bait for the evening. I put down what he gave me but nothing was cooperating.
