Ok thanks a lot Went down there a cpl of weeks to check it out It was packed with shore fisherman and must of been 20+ boats fishing just off shore In looking at Navionics there's some really sweet quick drops right off shore I just wasn't sure about the current Good to know - What about in front of Myers pier does anyone fish off there ?
If I were to go out from the pier after the ice is suitable I would park at the George St. boat ramp, walk out a few hundred yards then bare to the right(west) and you will find fish and fishermen. Do not leave the ramp then start out to the left{east} or you could find yourself treading water due to the warm water flow from the treatment plant. When the ice is suitable you will find many people out from the George st ramp that fish the north side of the pressure crack that shows up year after year with some people trying to fish the south side by crossing over the crack. Some fish it and well some get wet. Do not know the Bay just do not start out following footprints, take a spud and check your ice on your travels.
Why check ice?
