Wednesday night bass tournament report: Week 1, first place Steve T with a 17 1/2”. Tie for second and third with Bob P and Rusty both catching 16 5/8”. We fish every Wednesday night from 6-9pm out of Castaways on Upper Phantom. All are welcome. $20/person. All fish released alive.
Partly Sunny 35°
Ice: 8"
Was out from 9:30 to 4:30. A couple of nine inch perch, and some smaller bluegills jigging with waxworms. With medium shiners on tip ups no flags for me but some others landed a few bass and northern. Overall a nice day on the ice despite the slow fishing. 8” of solid black ice topped with three inches of the crunchy stuff.
I was most of the day today on my UTV. Most of the lake was a measured 10"-11" with about the top 3 inches being "white" ice and clear ice below that. There is an area to the north of the cattail island out from the boat launch that only has about 8". It was the last open hole to freeze and you can clearly see the edges of it. It is probably fine, but looks sketchy. I fished the entire lake from 2' to 9', and all sides of the lake and never caught (or saw) a single keeper. Terribly slow.
