    The game plan this morning was to get away from the crowds and look for new ice.
    Hooked up with jd welder first thing this morning. Started tough so we relocated to an area that, years ago,use to give up big gills. This small backwater has been deserted for years in the fact that it’s not as deep as it once was.
    The gills were in there,not a ton of numbers but a few nice gills and a bonus crappie.Steady action until 11am.then it was like somebody threw the “not hungry” switch.
    Looking forward to going back with a camera to see what this little hidey-hole has in it for numbers
    Good fishing with ya Dan,how did you end up ?

    Nice report Jeff, that crappie looks like its about 14+ inches, I’m surprised its only 12, it does help to hold it out a long ways tho. I made it out today on a pool 10 backwater, it was a new area for me I just wanted to try it out, caught quite a few small fish but ended up keeping around 20 fish between me and two other guys i was with, most of them were crappies
