day time ice fishing
(Preview)
What is the general consensus when it comes to hole hopping- jigging or even tip up fishing during day light for walleyes ? I think if I'm away from the crowd in 25 ft plus of depth the light shouldn''t be too big of a deal. What say y'all?

Still struggling compared to week or so ago. Last night between 8 guys, there was one fish caught. Tonight, between 4 guys, we caught 3. Plenty of good ice out away from shore in most areas (though it is melting fast). I heard some spots in the narrows at Gladstone are down to about 5 inches is all. Anyway,...

My brother's neighbor Ted caught the next 3 (and really started ticking the rest of us off), and my friend Brian caught the last one. We didn't even mark that many fish. After ge...
