Thanks for the info! If only I had an auger I could hit it up ice fishing tomorrow! Whats the chance of having a left over hole there from someone that hasnt frozen over? I am more of a fly fisher on pot hole lakes during the spring/summer months and have never been ice fishing in my life actually... I woulden't know where to start with pike and ice fishing. Jig with bait? Ive only ever spoon fished for pike. Thanks for the responses guys. I am just itching to get out and do some sort of fishing
