Beautiful, sunny weather (make sure you wear sunblock and sun glasses). Caught 14 in my first hour, then it slowed down, eventually caught my personal best of 40 fish! fished 5 hours and had a great time! Fastest action was before 9:30 a.m. White with red flecks gazilla was the best, initially waxies were great but shrimp eventually attracted the most. Had to jig to get their attention. Had many lookers and leavers, other wise it would have been a 100 fish day!!! I mainly fished in 15 FOW, but as the day progressed, moved up to 30 FOW, most caught around 15'.
How thick was the ice?
