Heading to Mazaska to my cousins cabin on Thursday for a long weekend. I am going with a couple of guys that dont ice fish much so would like to get them on fish. I have heard the ice is plenty thick to drive on but have not heard how the bite is. Looking for some info from fellow idoers. Thanks

I was out 2 weeks ago and had luck with smaller crappies in deep water at sunset into the dark. If you pick threw them u can get a meal. Fish were up 7 to 20 ft off the bottom. Small forage minnow with small minnow head or bobber with small minnow. The bigger crappies I think were in shallower. Good luck.
February 13, 2013 at 11:39 am #1141302I was out earlier this week and did well on the flats on the North end for pike. Biggest was 39″. The crappies were deep. We used a diamond head/minnow combo. We caught many in the 12-14 inch range. Our biggest was 16″. Who knew there were walleye in that lake? Got into a few. Nothing huge. 23 was the largest. Many bass took our bait too. One stretched the tape at 20 inches. We even caught a smallie. The perch didn’t bite well, but ran big. We let all the 13″ mamas swim another day. No Gills. 12 eelpout and one musky was caught.
Good luck! The way you’ve been catching this winter, you’ll need it!
