Default Coal Lake Conditions

How is the ice? if its 10 inches or so I think I may be driving on!! Being a southern boy and all that is plenty enough for me.
Any success? Trout are hittin hard...are the pike? Anyone find any Perch?
Drove by the lake today workin, but noone was on...

No trout in Coal lake as far as I know. Tons of "just under legal size" pike in there tho, perch are hard to find. Loads of brine shimp so the fish have a good food source. Walk on seems the safest bet right now till next weekend im guessing. Hope that helps somewhat?

oh no no no.. I mean in general other places trout are hitting hard.. curious about the pike and perch. There are lots of little pike but there are also some 10-20 lbers in there. Thats why I keep going back.. perch are scarse but there are some toads too...

Thanks guys. I think im going Sunday in that COOOLD weather after the good ol sunday service for a few hrs!

Sorry no can do. I wont be there. Went to the Dr today as my arse is still very sore from falling on my tailbone. Had an x ray done , its not broken but deep bruise whatever that means. Ive been told to stay off my but for 7 to 10 days let it heal. So I'm sol , Id love to come out and freeze my nickers off with the rest of you fine folk. So instead ill lay on the couch watching hunting and fishing all day.Hope you guys do good, don't be shy post lots of pictures. I was tempted to put my couch on ski's and come fish while laying on my side but truck is getting fixed after deer attack.
