The ice is about 15" and people are driving on the lake. I didn't catch anything. I was caught in two traffic jams and the world's longest McD's line and didn't get out till after dark. I'm not to sure if the ling bite after dark or at dusk and dawn? Either way the fish did not like what I was putting in the hole. All in all, I guess it was a good first run out for the year.

Default Snow.

How are the roads accessing the lake on the west side? Last year at this time there were trucks getting high centered just trying to access the lake. Some guys were trying to plow their trucks through some of the snow drifts and getting buried.

Much snow on the ice?

Thanks

We were on Crawling Valley Saturday. Took the whole auger to drill the holes so whats that about 16"? We drove across it as did a few others so should be good to set up on. We had a few hits but no fish.

Good Luck
