Awesome! Didn't they have a HUGE tip-up tournament a week ago or so? That place is big time.

I like your train of thought wapak! Hopefully sooner but being able to stand on hard water in March would be nice.

Yep, not looking good... maybe get on somewhere it freezes fast but be safe if you try.

Nope I didn't. I wasn't out very long mainly just checking on things and seeing if I could luck into a few. I probably won't fish Delaware again until after the last thaw. I tend to not catch as much when the water is mud so I'll probably stick to Alum, Indian or Buckeye for the remainder of whatever ice we have/get back.

I prefer hopping holes and sitting on my bucket. That said with the temps chilly and the possibility of taking the 3yr old out again I'm going to keep my shanty and heater on the ready for round 2.

Alum isn't real wide up by Howard road and I guess with a bit of friction from the ice you wouldn't need an anchor. I was just kinda shocked to see them out there I guess.

I went across the bridge at Howard road on Saturday evening and saw a couple guys out on yaks on what was left of the ice. Anyone here? If so how was the fishing? I've fished that area in the past on the ice and done ok.
Also saw a bunch of guys on the Howard rd bridge yesterday evening close to dark fishing. I would guess they are crappie fishing.
Good luck and stay dry!

Feel better soon. Hopefully more ice in a few weeks. I was going to try it tomorrow but decided against it.

Well said Chris and if you feel that person was me then I truly am sorry. I don't bring a bunch of people with me when I go out. The most I generally fish with is one other guy and that's not often, generally I'm solo. Like I said I haven't had the time lately to keep up with some people who I felt like were friends but also didn't reciprocate with contact outside of ice season but I understand people are busy. Is what it is. Tight lines and stay dry.

The first year I was married (the 2nd time) I took my wife out on the ice. I was only a bucket guy at that point and didn't have a shanty with me. We were just below Howard Rd at Alum and the ice was making all sorts of noise growing. We didn't catch any fish and she was cold and scared. Needless to say we didn't stay out too long. Now we have a total of 5 kids (2 hers, 1 mine, and 2 ours), with one that is only 9 months old, so she doesn't get out with me and my time on the ice has been a bit limited. I've also been hunting more these last few years so I need to pick and choose when and where I'm spending my time, or else I will end up divorced a 2nd time!

At Buckeye I caught crappie 2ft below the ice down to the bottom. The higher fish tended to be more active and willing to bite as well. It seems like at Alum things can be similar but they don't typically come up that high in the water column, probably because of the depth. I've also heard that barometric pressure has something to do with all of that as well.

I would suggest a look at Buckeye or Indian if you are attending OSU. Otherwise post where you are located and I'm sure someone will help out.
Stay safe!

Hookbender, ice may be good still but please check it by spudding and be safe!
