Fished Crispell this evening. 4-5” of ice. Fish were biting but no real size.
If you are missing some gear let me know. I found it at the boat launch on my way in.

Got my first skunk of the year in Irish hills today. Second time out so I guess there’s plenty of time for more lol blue bird sky’s usually aren’t the best for me. Found 5 inches of ice.

Didn’t mean to mislead anyone but my smartphone got me again! That was supposed to say “none on the lake I’m fishing” would hate to see anyone get hurt. Going back to edit my post.

Yep I stand corrected. So, just to clarify, after hours of saying “get rid of that black jig...the fish don’t want it”, the lesser wise old guy swapped out his black jig and finally started catching fish...

Got a nice limit in about two hours yesterday evening. Well, I got to 24 and then I fished for a couple more hours, hoping that a tip up would go off. No such luck. Happy to have found another great panfish bite.

Hit a lake in Jackson county yesterday and had good action with the panfish. Two tip ups out all morning with no flags. Keeper sized crappie all morning, no real biggins though.
I started out with a small gold fly jig with a spike but could not get past the dink gills. I knew there were crappie down there a little lower on the water column so I switched to a white jig with a long pink plastic and started getting the crappie.
Found em in 12-15 fow. There was about 5 inches of good ice where I was.

Non stop action this afternoon. Little atom micro nuggies and gold Tru turns with minnows did the trick!
