Ice Fishing Reports for the Madison Area Lakes

[trimbelle22]

I just moved to madison from la crosse and im looking for some advice on hitting the hardwater in the area. I will mostly be fishing for panfish and have a 4" hand auger. I know a lot of people fish monona, but i dont neccessarily just want to go set up in the middle of a group of people. Does anybody have any pointers for me to get started?

And if anybody wants a partner to go out with sometime, I am always looking for someone to fish with.

Thanks

Hey, I'm in the same situation as you. I go to UW-Madison and i'll be bringing my ice fishing gear down for the first time. I know some of my roommates will be accompanying me out on the ice, but i've never fished the area.
