Headed to Chesterfield with fam today!

I took the family out on the ice about 50 yards north of the creek inlet on the West Bank. Had a great evening! We passed some fishermen that had literally JUST abandoned their ice holes (they weren't even slushed up yet) who said they fished there all day and only caught 3 fish amongst 4 fishermen. I saw they had been fishing with nightcrawlers and primarily pink baits, so I went to their spot and threw on green and white with great success! We landed 10 fish in 2 hours - unfortunately they were all planters, but still a great time! On a positive note also my 2 year old daughter landed her first fish! We didn't get loaded up and off the lake until 30 min after dark, the thermometer read -12! My kids never would've known, they were laughing at the "dancing fish" on the ice the whole evening!
