forget Catawba , Crane Creek was on fire today with good ice conditions . Lots of limits today there in short times. That will be the hot spot from here on out as the fish move west towards the spawning grounds.

their facebook page is gone now for the ice fishing . Lots of bad things being said about them on many different pages. Glad you had a decent time .
In my opinion , you dont take people out for money until you know what your doing plain and simple . On Erie hard water , death can be only a step away . Forgetting people out there that paid you is not a good way to gain trust and customers.

They run a nice operation but the "Only Licensed Taxi " is a far reach . Anyone with a ATV, UTV, or Snowmobile can run a taxi out there .The only license you need to be an ice guide is a 50.00 license from the DNR .Had a friend book with them twice to have his trips cancelled because the guide told him he had a plow business as well and had to plow .Seen them out there several times last year and they were catching fish along with everyone else . Guess they had posted the ice went to heck and told people to stay off, but the season lasted 2 more weeks  

Advertising with "Only " in it does not sound good .

If going to Crane , you can only get out about 1.5 miles . The shove opened up today to about 50ft or so . Hope this saves you some time and money .

Lake Erie / Re: Heading up this weekend
« on: March 14, 2014, 10:57:35 AM »
Fished yesterday the 13th with no problems . Fished West Of Crane Creek with no slush or soft spots seen . Ice was still 16 inches which most was nice clear ice with  a couple inches of white ice on top and very smooth . Sleds that were not fan cooled had overheating problems today due to no snow or water on the ice   .Cracks were not an issue at all but this late in the season that can change daily .

Fishing was good in the group we fished with . All 9 guys limited .

The link above was in an area that is very well known for current and is usually one of the first places to go to hell due to that . Out west we had no current what so ever . Still lots of ice and it is still pretty much locked from the South shore to the North shore . I would personally stay away from the Catawba area unless your in an Air boat .

Lake Erie / Re: 3/01 quad? catawba/crane?

Believe me there are PLENTY of BIG FISH 6 plus miles out of Crane Creek . SO funny to here that Bigger fish are out of Catawba when I have not herd of one 14lb plus fish come from that area but have personally seen 5 just the past week out of Crane . Our last few times out with 3 and 4 guys limit with all 8lb plus fish .

Yes the numbers are also better out of Crane as well .If you want smaller 2-4 lb fish , fish within 4 miles and you will get them as well .No current to deal with out of Crane either .

The Tug wont have to break much ice . Lots of open water between Catawba and South Bass today .Thats the best thing that could of happened to that area . Most of the equipment lost this winter has been in that area . Prople just dont know how unreliable the ice is there .

I agree with the courtesy, but come on . Your going to throw something{ I think not as an empty propane bottle is enough to throw } . but you hope you dont have to use your old dog RUGER ??? Great way to get locked up bud . Hope he doesnt have old men S&W with him after you assault him with the propane bottle or you could be the unlucky one.   

Let it go . Always going to be something someones does to piss you off. Continue fishing and be done with it .

Head due West out of Catawba about 2 miles and there are plenty of fish there . The guys running North have had a slower bite the past week or so .

Why not just go to Crane ??  Would never even think about heading out of Catawba to fish Crane even with a machine .

Whitefish , did you see them or hear about them ?  two post by you stating different things here . I for one will say I was up there 2 days in a row this week on the ice talking to about 40 different people and there was a total of 0 fish caught between them when I talked to them those 2 days . Same results for the Bay Bridge area .
