Since it's under the Indian Lake category I would guess that's it. 4"??? really?

I was on the ice today,it was by no means considered safe ice. If you was there Saturday,Sunday & today you probably know were you can go and not go.There is a lot of bad ice out there, bad ice that's going to deteriorate fast.Most of the ice is more like 3 inches at best.You may be on 3inches walk 5 feet and your an inch in some places.

Where is this at? Is it Turkeyfoot on Portage lakes, or is there a Turkey Foot channel on Indian? Forgive my asking, but I'm not familiar with Indian, and that pic looks like Portage lakes. If it is, we need to move it over there. :)

Turkeyfoot is on the Northeast side of Indian Lake in Logan County. ILFisher took this picture from his lake house. It's a really fun area of the lake and worth a visit next time you come down. Froggy's, The Tilton Hilton and Acheson's Resort are within steps of where this picture was taken on a secluded channel.

Is it mainly panfish, or are there 'eyes to be had ???

You can get eyes anywhere in the lake at pretty much any time of year. This is a great area for panfish.

But you can't get a tilton hilton burger anywhere on the lake. Here is how you know you are top of the spot: Are you noticing a staff that is friendly but can talk like sailors? Are you on a 45 degree angle and holding onto the table to stay upright? Did you walk in starving and walk out stuffed but wanting more? Then you are in the right place! :)
