Terry Posted December 27, 2011 Report Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) I got asked to go to Lake X for some crappie fishing and couldn"t say no, I have been dieing to get out, Knew I had to do a bit of traveling to get some ice. we found the spot, threw a big rock on the ice and it did not go through so the march was on.. chip chip step was not the route this time it was chip chip crack craaaaaacccckkkkkkkk run crack step seems the water level had lowered sense the ice formed so there was a bit of a space between the ice and the water so we spud a hole and the ice cracks in 4 directions and you could feel the ice drop to the water level. I saw it drop where the ice met the rocky shoreline . after the first scare we checked and had 4" of good black ice and all the way out it was the same thing, the one time I am sure I could see the crack run 400ft and shake a dock when it got to it.. but again good 4" of ice we set up fishing and Andy gets 2 bass real quick he wasn't happy getting green bass as his first ice fish of the season..LOL I got the first crappie and we continued catching lots of them right through the day it started snowing pretty good and the wind picked up so we called it a day for the long ride home <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view¤t=lakeX1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/lakeX1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> everyone had lots for a meal this poor little frog was on the ice and half frozen, so we got him over near the shore and some open water so he could get down to some mud for the winter...or we just fed a big bass a nice frog..... it was great getting on the ice I can't wait to get out again closer to home thanks guys it was great fishing and fun day Edited December 28, 2011 by Terry

Fish Farmer Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 Nice catch Terry. Just talked to my buddy, he suggests we may have to go farther north this year for safe ice. Built a box for my ATV, hope I get to use it.
