Headed out to Huff's yesterday for a morning fish, slush and water on ice had started to freeze but was still breaking through with every step (about 6 inches deep). With cleats, it was still easier than trudging through all the snow we had! According to the forecast for the week, this should all freeze solid and make for easy ice travel. Pulled up one nice 5lb 'eye around 730 and nothing more until we left around noon. Had some pretty good laughs watching other unlucky anglers chase after just about anything that wasn't firmly anchored down! Had to drill the legs of my chair into the ice a few inches to keep from blowing down the ice. Despite the challenges - Good day out.
