Title: 2/28/15
Post by: Fishingoat on January 30, 2015, 02:09:45 PM

Went to n end off beach (private property) wed night around 8 and stayed till 12am.   Ice was good except had that creepy soft layer on top where your boot sinks thur 2 or 3 inches.  It got better near center.    Quite a few sniffers but only 4 medium crappie biters.  Tough day at work the next day.  5 am comes early. 
Tight lines.

Thanks for the report. I was wondering about the chip. And as for that creepy ice, I was on some tonight as well. It was so cold tonight that I was shattering huge areas of ice pockets with the spud. It would of made a newbie soil his shorts. It was cool being the only soul on the ice hearing it sing. The baro pressure has been high, I expect the crappie to bite tmw evening.

No prob. 
I think today would have been a great day but took the kids sled riding instead.   Weather was perfect.  I am hoping to get out in the morn, tho not sure where.  Probably the only one on an idiot mission thru the snow storm. 
Tight lines.
