Guys, I have my future almost son in law (as sson as he asks) who has never ice fished and we have a morning pass . . . have to get him a license first and then join you guys. I'll call to find out where everyone is and if you need anything.

Wheres the reports ladies? cool

Tank, Billy, and I hit a new local lake Timmy labled "Brandy Lake"...

We had a very nice day, each hole seemed good for 1-3 fish. I did pop a hole or two that were good for 8 and 10. Mostly medium gills and seeds with about every 4th or 5th fish being a keeper. We all kept around 20. I did get one nice 11 inch crappie as did Billy. So they are there but scattered. They should group up better as winter moves along. Fish were everywhere from 10 to 18 ft with no real pattern. I drilled a ton of holes and coverd most of the lake.

Tanks first fish of the morning...

Great job Jay, Tank and Billy. Brandy has some dandies wink I think with boys we should be able to split that baby up good and find a nice hole or two at Brandy. I could have a reliable vehicle for the trip as early as tomorrow afternoon whistle

Well Doug, Chris, Jake, Todd and I started at EBanks where after a couple of hours only marked one fish. Todd caught 4 nice gills, so I left while Todd stayed to venture to Big Money and slammed a nice gill took a pic of it on the cell phone and then a 9' perch and then small perch after small perch. The ice wasn't good where Doug and I hung our hat a couple days earlier. The lack of snow didn't protect it from the wind and the rain so the deepest i got was 29' and where I wanted to be was 32' to 34'. Doug Chris and Jake met Frank, Al and his future son-in-law on yellow tape where the fishing was a whole lot better than the two previous lakes. Stayed and fished it till about 3 p.m. todd left arond 2:30 p.m. Chris and Doug stayed and Chris's son Jake left when we got there cause he had a basketball tournament. We didn't have stacked fish but I always had at least two's if not three's come through every few minutes. Caught quite a few nice ones that last 1/2 hour and it seemed white or white glow worked the best. Gills were educated and released. Next time I will not forget the camera. Well boys I am off van shopping tomorrow. So if you get out there release a few for me..

Chris and I left YT around 2pm and headed over to Erieville for the late afternoon Perch and early evening Waldo bite. Chris got a few JUMBOS in 23FOW right off the bat, so we played with them for a while...We headed shallower and tried our luck for Old Waldo(Chris was running a tip-up line sick)

while I put the Chubby's to the test. I banged one first drop...small 11"er and then next drop...WHAM, Waldo on...nice fish, but couldn't seal the deal...fish off mad

I am hitting the same spot 1.5 hrs before daybreak...I have a date with Ol' Waldo cool

Any takers whistle

Tank and I headed south of the border to our Crappie Lake and had a real nice afternoon. We probably caught 35-40 craps each.Most were 8-10 inchers with a few 11s thrown in. I lost one pig that fealt like a teener.

Tanks first fish of the afternoon...

My first one, yep at times they were aggressive enough to wack a chubby darter. Fish came on everything from those to spoons. they really liked Maki's. And Tank did some damage on a black fly of my creation above a Ybd...
