I used to think the last hour was better by far than any other time of the day on the ice. The results seemed to prove it.

Now, I catch more fish mid day and the last hour is usually unproductive. Now, granted I fish Pike primarily. And many of the lakes I fish are somewhat stained, so I wonder if it’s just too dark the last hour and the fish feed mid day?  What do you guys think about the last hour of sunlight and ice fishing?
