Was gonna hit the up ground reservoir tomorrow...was wondering if anyone was out today for an ice report...any info greatly appreciated.... Friday evening there was open water at shore..from what I heard
I was up there today, the ramp has open water. One guy out there, he went off the rocks, so i checked with spud bar and it went through. Not the best conditions on the edges to get out.
I appreciate it fellas...and have been out the last two days as well...I also have a blue shappell...and have been fishing the West end.. in the middle.. North end of the pack ...if you can decifer that...I did well today probably thirty gills 15 keepers and 4 bass...one 17" that broke my noodle tip...so he went home as well ...no perch or crappie...I just hijacked my own thread... anyone else done any good...
Was there Sunday also. Very slow for me also. Saturday afternoon was very good. Lots of small perch. With some nice perch mixed in. Weather forecast doesn't look good.
I don't ice fish but do get to Wellington Up during the warmer months around 4-6 times per year.
Two questions popped into my mind while reading these posts:
1) are you guys fishing the "hump" or are you over deeper water? feel free to use code if need be.
2) isn't the wind a little tough to take ? or do your shanties pretty much block it out?
just being curious. i'm zero competition on the ice.
I've been decently successful in about 23-24 row...on keeper Gill's... But with tonight being cold and Wednesday as well I think Thursday might be worth a check... I know the ramp will be a no go...but 10 inches of ice just doesn't disappear after a few days of rain...just have to be careful around the edges...defiantly gonna spud bar first
Uhhh the whole point of the forum is to not have to drive 40 mins. To find out conditions... I asked if there where any takers because the bite had gotten tough before the warm up...
