Four of us put over 60 eyes on the ice last week. Some up to 9 pounds.

I hate fishing out there in that shallow stuff but it can be great at times. It.s worse when the ice is two feet thick and there is only a foot of water under it. Yes the fish are still in there.

Well i followed the tree line out aways and veered off to some 4 ft marks on gps and had to cut lotta holes to find 3.6 fow. Tons of ice sure makes it hard jiggin did get a nice pike and uncle iced a 6 lb eye. Yote is that group that fishes around the 45 ft hole gettin big numbers of fish cause there sure was a row of shacks there.

I have heard a lot of stupid things in my life but that one takes the prize so far. I thought about that one for a long time and can make zero sense out of it. Laker Taker is not making that up, 100% true.
