Headed to Potter's for the first fish of the year. Pulled in and saw a couple of guys out 200 to 300 feet. Great, got my gear and started out. About 50 feet from shore something didn't seem right. Gave a wack with the spud bar and straight through. Poked around trying to find some better ice and a way out. Spud went through fist wack everytime. There wasn't any black ice at all, just 3 inches of soft white. After a couple of minutes looking back and forth from shore to the guys fishing I decided to head back and load up.
Went for a drive and 25 minutes later I was on 4 inches of solid black ice. Set up and first drop fish on. Big Pike that broke off at the hole. 2nd drop fish on and iced a minute later. 3rd drop and his twin is on the ice.
Couple of small perch and that was it for the day.
