Fish slack water areas - anywhere out of the current. I like the holes in front of the big cement water outlets all along the river within the city. Be careful and check the ice every few feet as it can vary a lot. One time, at an eddy area, I checked the ice near shore & it was thick. Took two more steps & my whole leg went through the ice. I was dam lucky all of me didn't go through. No one would have found me or perhaps some unlucky person would have found pieces of me along the shore after the spring break-up. So yes, be very careful & stay on slack water areas. I've caught nice Pike & Burbots through the ice right in Edmonton.
