First time out and a productive day , 3-8 just using night crawlers and a few plastic baits . Caught nothing on plastics but got 1 14" lmb,  3 catfish medium size , 6 bluegills 6 -9 inches 1 10" perch and to top it off 1 bowfin 20" , didn't know they were there  ! All in a nice outing fish and weather !!

Ottis we will be in our usual area. Hoping to hook up at some point during this event. It’s always a pleasure to see you out there.

Yes, gunna be out there with anybody that will put up with me, Lvva bay, west side in front of channel, Hitting the ice around 5:30 targeting big Pike. I could use some pointers Z man!

We have an Ottis2 siting! It’s almost better than any bigfoot story 

Will you be out there with your crew?

How much ice? Any known bad spots? Any atv travel? 

Thanks 

Derby is On !!!    March 2nd   Be There for a Great Time

Caught a few gills before the rain on Saturday. 

If you fished Bangs last week and are missing gear, I picked up quite a bit of it when I was out there Saturday morning. No one I spoke with on the ice claimed the found items which were left next to holes around the lake. Let me know what you’re missing, and if I picked it up we can schedule a time to get your stuff back. I’m pretty sure I picked up items belonging to a few different fishermen based on the different locations where everything was found.

Anyone been out here since the rain. Any update on ice thickness? derby forsure happening? 

Thanks

Spent 3 1/2 hrs with no flags. Partner got 1 nice crappie, 2 small gills and nada most of the morning.

Any ice reports? I was thinking about trying a night bite tonight or tomorrow.
