cong ice report

[Billfish715]

I did a grand tour of the shoreline of the big lake today. Lots of open water so the access points are limited. The biggest crowd ( 12 or so ) was at the park. I didn’t see more than three other fishermen on the whole lake. There were fishing opportunities for panfish around the bridges. I imagine if you used a shiner or fathead under a float, there might be some action if you are patient. At least you can get out of the wind.

In the short time that I was watching at the park, I saw one perch landed on a tip up. Know before you go. There is limited room for your sleds and tip ups and unless you are familiar with other parts of the lake and where to park and get on the ice, you might be disappointed. Just keep in mind that your favorite spot may not be frozen.

Stay safe.
