Hey there guys I’m new to the site and just read the post. I was on Monona a lot this year and my best days were around 2/7-2/12. Last time I went there were 30 people by 6a.m. in the area I had been fishing for the last 3 weeks. I’m not one to jump in to the crowd so we spent the morning looking for some different fish and only managed a few. I was hopeing to get back out for 1 more trip but not to sure about the ice since I’ve been spending my time on the river.
