Title: buckeye Fairfield 1-20
Post by: fishinjared on January 21, 2014, 08:17:14 PM
I went out yesterday to try to venture out to deeper water in between the ice house and marsh but I just fished the point with the crowd given that it looked sketchy at best and I was alone but I'll be venturing out Thursday we should be set to go back to the depths of buckeye once again judging by the temps we are getting and slight snow cover... I was sitting in 4.5 feet of water on 4" of ice marked lots of fish but no takers only had one seperate from the bottom to glance at my lure. I can't wait to sit on 8-9 feet of water again we tore it up before the darn warm up! hope to see some of you out Thursday.
