One word. Fantastic!
The best ice fishing I have had there in years. Seen tons and caught my limit of whites mixed with the odd walleye and pike. Made for a very nice outing. I was very surprised to see how big the whites were on average. This was my third time out on Pigeon and I have done well every time out. FYI, this was the only time I kept any for the smoke house. I believe in Carma so the first two outings were strictly C&R.
Ice was getting near 18" which made using the hand auger a bit tough. Hard packed snow drifts every now and then but it was pretty easy trucking on the lake itself.
