Thanks Ice! Is anyone else getting out this year?

New PB for me. 18 inches on a small tungsten jig tipped with a waxie. Caught on a Clam ice team ultra-light rod with an Eagle Claw in-line reel. Quite a battle taking drag with several runs. I was so afraid that the 4 lb line would break!

Today, Saturday was slower action than Wednesday, but I still caught a few. Lots of small fish so far this year. Tuesday may be the last day for a while.

I ended yesterday with more small gills than I could count, 1 perch and 2 bass. One bass was about 13 inches. I will be out this weekend for sure. Good luck and stay safe out there.

Gone fishin' not just a wishin'. 4 inches thick on my 1/2 acre pond. Getting bit on almost every drop with a tiny tungsten jig and waxie. Lost a real nice bass at the hole.

My little 1/2 acre pond has some ice on it already! I am going to buy some waxies this week and hope for the best. I only got in 3 days last year, but I did pretty good. Stay safe.

I was able to fish safely yesterday with only 3 inches of ice on my little pond. I drug out my 8 foot Pelican boat and fished out it on the ice! Didn't catch anything, but had a good time.

Thanks Ice hole 2. I have 3 nice gills and the bass. Haven't caught a single perch this year. Will be out again today. Maybe tomorrow if it's still safe.

I have about 5 1/2 inches of ice. Fished yesterday, first hole, first drop and bam! The bluegill bite was on! 1 small bass and a few keeper gills. Heading out and fishing all day today. Hopefully get a few more nice gills and maybe some perch to add for a wintertime fish fry.

Gonna check my little pond tomorrow. Should be at least 4 inches. It was iced over before the winds came. Might get 3 days of fishing in.

I was able to fish a lot this year too. Lots of dink bass, crappies, perch, and gills and 1 decent bass.

I had a great day fishing my pond today. The chew was on from the first drop with a very small pink and yellow tungsten jig and waxworm. About 10 gills, 1 nice yellow perch, and 1 nice crappie. Used my favorite setup: Clam ulta-light team ice rod with built in spring bobber, Eagle Claw inline reel, and 4lb Suffix ice mono.

I turned on my aerator in my small pond to add oxygen, and well it opened up a large area of open water! I wasn't catching much anyway this year. It's off now and I will wait until it re-freezes. So I went and fished a lake in West Mansfield instead. Caught several dink gills right away, then I caught a 14 1/2 inch largemouth on my ultralight rod, inline reel and 4 lb line. He took out drag several times! Very small jig with a waxie. I will be going back Thursday!
