Was out on Lake of Bays on Saturday with a friend and my grandson.
There was about 18" inches of snow on the ice a couple inches of slush, 14" of black ice and about 4" of white ice.
It started slow hardly marking any fish on the finder the about 11:00 AM the screen lit up with fish near bottom and midway up. We were in 60ft where the hut was and a had a still line at 39ft.
I was getting hits but no takers at first the my grandson and friend started getting hits but no takers.
This went on for quite a while so I started jigging harder with my Williams and a minnow in an outside hole and finally hooked a laker nothing big but a good eater around 2lbs. Ten minutes later my friend got a hit and he to got a laker, a few minutes later he gets another one.
I was outside and looked at my still line and said I wish would grab this minnow and and go and sure enough the rod tip goes down and I call my grandson to go get and set the hook and fight was on 5 minutes later he landed his first lake about 31/2lbs. We tried for white fish after that with no luck but ended the day with 4 lakers.
