Geano Beach had a few temporary ice shacks to the south of the landing fishing for pike and perch. Oconto Breakwater had the most number of anglers with catches of perch, white fish, and pike.

Perch are being caught in mouth area of the Breakwater as well as father out on the bay.

White fish are being caught on jigs by the mouth of the Oconto and 50 or so yards out in the bay. Pike anglers are concentrating on the north side of the breakwater.

A few perch are being caught out from the Geano Beach area, a well as northern. Oconto Breakwater Park anglers are still having success with perch in the mouth of the Oconto River using jigs and wax worms. Some white fish are being caught straight out from the mouth of the Oconto, with pike being fished in the flats north of the breakwater. Pike anglers are having limited success with pike out from Oconto Parks I and II. Care should be taken when approaching the ice shoves as the ice is thin and will not support vehicle traffic.
