Title: Safe Ice, No Fish!

Fished 2/23 at south end of lake caught a few nice gill in the morning but was after perch and eyes. All caught on wax worms. Moved in front of cemetery and only got one bite. Ice was good in both spots. Anywhere from 7-10 inches. A lot of people fishing the SW side of the causeway but didn't try it had to get home. Guy said they were catching a little bit of everything.

An lid onion sack with some road kill in it hung in a tree over the water , or under a bridge and the maggots eat through the meat and fall into the water . Automatic fish feeder. ;)
