We're you the two guys in the red Eskimo shelter? I came out just before noon and fished in the dam arm across from the State Park. I ended up with 22 chubs and no trout, but I was targeting the chubs. If it was you guys, thanks for the offer of the hand auger.
I appreciate the help getting my Strikemaster going the first time this season.
Ice was 6.5 inches and growing. The w**d was blowing out of the south at about 15 to 20 mph at times and it was snowing lightly most of the afternoon. There is about an inch of snow on the ice which made the footing pretty good.
There is snow predicted for the next few days which will insulate the snow and slow the freezing process. Use caution anywhere on early season ice. Remember your safety gear and use common sense.
