    How’s the fishing in the “Spring Lake” area on the Mississippi during the Winter. Is it frozen? Does anyone ever ice fish here?

    I have heard of some tip up fishing for Northern, But that was it, Just hearsay. The lake is pretty shallow.

    If you get into Spring Lake early ice you WILL get nice crappies and gills. When the ice thickens they leave and you will start picking up a lot more of those fish in little and big missouri which are very close to spring lake. I don’t know anything about tip ups in there but I’m sure there are northern lurking around in that shallow water. Assuming we are talking the same “Spring Lake” area on the Mississippi. I’m talking just north of Prarie Du Chein, WI.

    I assumed they were talking about the Spring Lake at the south end of pool 2.
