Decided to try a different area of atwood i havent fished in yrs. I fished off the main meach.. I went specifically trying to target saugeye.. Since atwood is such a great crappie lake thought the ice i seem to forget about the saugeye there. I didnt have much luck i fished the afternoon from noon to 430ish.. i only rolled 4 fish..and had 2 bumps on a blue n chrome #5 jiggn rap tipped w minnow head on tail hook.. I have no idea what the were. they acted like a walleye coming off the bottom and timing my vibee. Could of also been catfish as my buddy was using a green buckshot 15 yrds from me and got a 20 incher. Plenty of marks. And definately worth anothet try.. maybe ill try some shallower water.water clarity was great and there was no snow on the lake and with the sun out here and there coulda played a role on em as well. Ice was busted up on shore. Had to find a spot to get on but was too bad. Ice was 5 inchs everywhere i drilled. Saw 2 shantys off yacht club. So we didnt lose our ice we should be good to go now. with cold temps here on out.
