My dad and his buddy were out there yesterday 3/4 mile out in 8 foot of water. They had a ranger orv, they never got a bite. although there was a nice 10" of ice. He read your post and was pretty discouraged that you were cathing fish and the did not get a bite. Congrats Riverrat777!!!:)

You know last year around this time I noticed the fish were biting high off the bottom. I even had one take a dead minnow out of the ice hole. I wonder if its because they are now comfortable with the ice on top. Or maybe they are jsut getting darn hungry.

I have a buddy who's taking his father out this weekend to LSC, but he can't walk very far do to health reasons. Are fish in close or do you have to walk a ways?
Any other location to get fish without hiking a mile??
They don't have access to any machines:(

They don't have access to any machines:(Tell him to go to the raft and fish the canals. a couple 100 yards at the most for a walk. Good fishing too - Bryon

Call Jimmy's bait shop at 586-329-3811, they are trying to get a ice taxi service by Friday.
fairhaven dnr to the raft is pretty close to get on the fish, metro daysail and boat basin are also easy to get on fish. good luck
