[cool][font "Arial"][size 2]The last 2 days on the ice has produced a few nice stripers. The 19th one 17lb. and a 15lb. were caught in the Gravel Hill area. With good numbers on stripers in the 6 to 8 lb. category. White bass and white perch are also being caught. The ice never has gotten as thick as I like it and with the last 2 days of warmer weather it has thawed around the edges and is getting a little spooky. But with the cold weather coming in the next few days I would predict that this weekend the ice in the gravel Hill area will be a good 4 inches or more. The bait of choice has been 1/4 oz white and chartuese bucktails. With new ice always be careful if you go, fish with a friend and remember no fish is worth that cold life threatening swim. Good Luck[/size][/font]
