    I ran up to ML this morning and met my buddy Mark, on the East side. Small bright colored spoons loaded with maggots worked well. We fished in 29ft of water. Normally while perch fishing I drill a ton of holes, but decided to hunker down in my cottage this morning with the wind. It worked out and I had my limit by around 9am. We had about 20″ of ice were we were but I know there are plenty of areas with thin ice still. Stay safe and good luck!!!

    Though I took the pic, I did not realize that till I saw it posted.

    It was a good day and a very HOT start to the morning. Jumbos continued passing through but got too slow by 3pm and we packed it in.

    4 species caught there today. Perch, walleye, tulibee and pike. My guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves and left with several pounds of fillets. I can say I have never seen kids have so much fun playing on the ice.

    here is to next weekend Trav.
