Gave her a shot on Firday and I got to tell you that fishing has been pretty poor. I caught one off of bellair at around 20" and that was it. Been talking to other folks out on the ice and the consensus is pretty much the same. Fishing has been slow. If I were to go out there again, I would try to go off the beaten path and try to find them. Maybe try really shallow. Crappies have been hard to find too. Most are seeing just a few on the finders. Some say they are graphing nothing. This year you are going to have to try something different to get any fish at least so far.
Our tradition is that of the first man who sneaked away to the creek when the tribe did not really need fish. ~ Roderick Haig-Brown, about modern fishing, A River Never Sleeps, 1946
