Went out to check the conditions on the area rivers to do some whitefish fish'n only to see to much ice flowing. Dropped by Elton pond to check the ice (just happened to have a pole and auger) Didn't see any indications of anyone attempting to fish it yet so I drilled my way out to a likely spot (ice was a nice hard (2"). Drop a couple of TROUTCANDY JIGS and put two Dandy Bows on the ice in a total of 10 minutes of fishing with two lost. The conditions will only get better with this cold spell.

One persons 2" might actually be 3 or 4inches. 2" is "two knuckles" from any finger, on the average size hand. 2" inches of clear ice would be way to spooky for me!

Nice fish. Do those jigs have a flashy blade on them?

Heh! Heh! Heh! 2" May be DUMB! But Less than 2" is DUMBER! Lesser is STUPID I may be dumb but I am not STUPID. Caught some Crappie today but I forgot to put in the card on my camera so I'll need to figure out how to down load off the camera!!!!!!!

Nice fish brother. Give it a few more days and the ice will be 6-8 inches! Be safe and tight lines!
