Dead Lake
A question for the ice fishing sharpies.... We ice fished a small private lake yesterday in Sussex County. Tucked away at the base of the Appalachian mountain. Not a flag all day using fat heads and shiners..15 tip ups..nothing jigging. This lake is normally loaded with nice fish. This lake is so private we were the first to fish it this year. It appeared to me that the lake has gone oxygen deficient..... Shiners coming out of the holes dead after soaking a while. 15 inches of ice and the feeder creak and swamp frozen solid. HAS ANYONE SEEN THIS BEFORE. Thanks for your thoughts and info.
Despite the lack of fish it was just an awesome day on the hard water. Very very strange for this lake. This brutal winter up there may just be too much stress on such a small shallow lake.
