Went thru 3 scoops of fatheads today in 6 hours on the Mississippi, put over 50 walleyes in the boat with an average size of 14", the minimum is 15" and we caught nothing legal. Fast action and missed as many as we caught. Unfortunately we couldn't find the bigguns

Got out today with my dad and a few buddies not far from our deer camp. Finished with 7 keeper perch and one keeper walleye. Also jigged up one short eye on a jig and waxie. Maybe drank a beer or two, too.

There was 4 1/2" of ice out in front of my boat ramp yesterday, and I chainsawed through it to see ( and to move an obstruction).

That would be snowmobile safe.

I think I'm a bit farther north of MNMan and I have a full 6" of ice on the lake here. This lake may be smaller tho at just under 400 acres.
