Title: Indian Lake Update - 12/10/2018
Post by: Downthehole on December 10, 2018, 03:33:28 PM
Hi All,

I heard a report of folks being out on the ice at Indian Lake. There are no signs of anyone being out at Long Island 1st, 2nd, 3rd pull off - not even spud bar marks in the ice.

I checked the ice at my dock and the chisel went through in a single hit. I chiseled some ice out and it?s 1-1/4? thick.

I?ll start posting updates as we get into the cold weather..

Andy

I headed up there late this morning. First stop was lakeside and the lady working said Blackhawk was actually the best ice she'd heard of. I stopped and there were 5 or 6 guys out on a good 3 inches of clear ice. I gave it a try but I couldn't even get a follow. Think most of the marks I saw were shad. Saw a few gills and 1 good crappie caught pretty quick but then nothing. ..I packed up and looked around for awhile. Found some decent ice on the north side with a couple guys I'd fished with before out on it. Got into a bunch of small gills eyes and white bass. Steady bite on a 1/32 vmc flash champ spoon. goldfish color. No size to anything but it was fun getting out and catching a few.   Playing around with my new helix 7 ice. Pretty happy with it so far. May go out tomorrow before work but it will prob be toast after that.

Glad yo made it out and back safely. Small fish through the ice is better than no fish.
