Well I figured I would post this even being late at night. You guys are going to wake up early tomorrow and need something to read. A good friend of mine takes me to some good spots across the border into mich, in the irish hills. We fished a private lake today 1.5hr drive for me and couldn't walk out far but seven feet seemed to be deep enough (we normally fish 16-20) It wasn't the usual crappie whack but I got one, a nice perch, and caught enough gills to keep me busy. Ice was 3in thinning out to 1.5in. not far from where we sat. Caught everything on orange Gpa Bob's jigs. A few on a jawjacker and nothing would touch the minnows... Had fun drilling and for just an afternoon trip 3-6... It was nice, even sat in the shanty for the first time this year!
Gills were 7.5-8.5 and crappie was 11. Didn't do the tourney b/c didn't know if another state mattered? lol Anyways this is my 4th time on the ice this year and only pretty good trip so far. Next weekend should be good, then back to warm again!

Nice job. By the shanties in the background how many people get to fish this private pond?? Thanks for the ice teaser

Great to hear someone get out and get some. Nice few hours work.

It's a private lake. One area you can park nearby and access it. So enough room for maybe 4 cars parking. I would have gone back today but couldn't find anyone to go.
