Cosmos Posted January 9, 2016 Report Posted January 9, 2016 We went to VB today, we were checking ice with heavy ice chisels every step. I stopped moving forward once got to 3 inches. I should warn everyone - ice is not safe anymore please dont try it. This morning ice was from 5 to 3,5 inches in most places. When we were leaving it was 1,5 to 3 inches. Rain was killing it pretty fast. Fishing was ok in the morning and died around 11 am. Kept 23 fish for pan. I hope next week we will have a good ice.
wormdunker Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 Nice mess of fish! I won't be on the ice any time soon.
crappieperchhunter Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 Good job I was going to join a buddy on Cooch today but backed out because I didn't like the forecast or the current ice thickness. Next weekend for sure. And I know that nervous feeling coming in from a days fishing on iffy ice. I hope to never experience it again. But man I'm still jealous. Enjoy your fish fry.
Rizzo Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 shoot I thought this was gonna be a "got the boat out one last time" post! Nice to see you got some fish, and i hope everyone takes your advice to stay away...especially Monday and Tuesday when it is cold again and people quickly forget the warm spell
misfish Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 Braver man then I, but I was one that would be out when before others when I younger.LOL Nice feed there Costa.
Old Ironmaker Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 And I was looking forward to seeing what you caught in Virginia USA. You know it's thin ice when you walk by a guys hole 20 feet away and water comes up it. That was 5 years ago on Quinte, maybe 2"s. NFG for me. Good for you Costa, but you know we don't keep anything under 12"s here on Erie. You know I jest, it's actually 10.
