I was in the lake today. I did get alto of 6 and 7 inch perch but there were enough 8 and 9 inchers to keep me there. I also got a few Jumbos 11 plus. Next 3 years is going to be great :)

I was off of Metro. I got a few in close but the big fish came from deep water. there is 6 to 7 inches of good ice. Water is stained but clearing up day by day. there were guys off of Geno's? I don't know how the ice was. I didn't tear them up . I think i only kept 20 prob 10 8's 3 11 inches and over and the others were 9 or 10" .

One guy did have his large atv on the ice and drove it to the edge. Its nice ice but you still have to watch the wind or up-coming storms. lots of water to drift in if the ice breaks off.

I did manage to keep 20+ in the nine mile area.....So your move didnt pan out for ya eh iceguy???? It was wierd, you would get a flurry of bigger fish (keepers) and then the DINK party would start up again.....Mostly 8" no 10's or better.....Still waiting on a JUMBO 13 or better from all the fish i caught this fall and early ice.....

Yea, no good there when we were there. They did get a few earlier in the morning. The fish go in and out of there, you just have to be there. Won't be long now, I will be on the lake. seeya
