As mentioned lots of ice, fishing is slow, but there...also be prepared for the 10 lbs of shrimp which shoot up on the ice as soon as you punch threw...thought I hit mud, but it was thousands of the little guys....no wonder the fishing is slow the lake is full of natural feed.

Wow, too bad humans can't eat them. :) But seriously, they would make excellent bait if one could preserve them reliably.
