My fiancee and i are currently up at fletchers pond, outside of hillman michigan. We drove up yesterday and fished this morning. this morning we caught 3 bass over 16 in. and a nice 32" pike.
Were going to be here until the 1st as were getting married on the Ice in-front of Jacks Landing on Saturday.
13" of ice- down side there is just as much snow as there is ice on the lake. a lot of water coming up because of the snow. major slush in the area we were fishing.
recommend 4x4 ORV or snowmobile if your not renting a shanty from anyone.
There is single digits predicted for Sunday night and thru much of early next week so that should help freeze up the slush zone.
Fletchers is a pike / bass lake, panfish can be had but not the top target fish, nor easy to locate.
Bass season closes dec 31st.
where ever you go, you have a good time!
