Finally getting some safe ice here in SW Lower Michigan. Hit up a little local lake that has some fantastic early ice action and we were not disappointed Night time in my opinion is the right time, as we got everything set-up in about 30 fow the flasher was already marking fish suspended at 20 feet down. Minnows were the bait of choice and within minutes we had rods bending. An hour and a half of action my son and I kept a one man limit for dinner to be ethical sportsman and only kept what we needed. Weather conditions look favorable to get some of the more premier lakes safe and ready for foot travel in the coming days. A load of fun as I enjoy every minute I spend with my son Brendan in the field or on the water.
His First Slab of the Season…..
