Title: ice conditions?
Post by: 30inthabucket on February 27, 2015, 06:04:27 PM

Has anyone fished cj this week? Was curious about  the ice. I've never ice fished there and it sounds like the ice can be tricky. Sounds like the marina area is usually ok. How's the overlook area? Thanks

The ice is in great shape now compared to what it has been. I haven't been over to the overlook area lately. It was open water a week or so back but I would imagine it has locked back up with the temperatures we have had. The Marina is locked tight.

I'm hoping to hit the main lake on Sunday. I haven't had much luck this year there but others have done well. Good luck and post your results if you head there.

6" of ice at the overlook 9" along the dam and west bank.  The short crappie were biting and the little gills.

I ended up fishing the marina where it goes out to the main lake.probably 12 inches ice. Punched a ton of holes but couldn't get on anything. Couple marks. No bites
