Team 45 representing Ohio reporting, arrived up here today. Did some pre-fishing today with more fun in the wind tomorrow! Had a good chat with a Clam sponsored naifc team from wisconsin. Good fellas to talk too. 14" of ice was the average I was finding today, fish were biting but not aggressive. More to follow.

Starting to figure it out Today but was tough, we managed a few. Wind didn't kick to full gale until late morning. Water clarity isn't bad.
Seen more teams out today, fully expect a full house tomorrow .

Sorry I didn't update yesterday, long drive I less than ideal weather. 1st place weight was 7.99 lbs believe this team also took big crappie 1.75 lbs We turned in 3.25lbs put us between 50-60th place. 50th place was 3.5lb and 60th was 3.08lbs. Team from port Clinton did well , pretty sure they finished in top 20. Met some great guys , learned a quite a bit more about fishing tournaments . Next years tourney will be on vineyard lake.
