From everything I've been told (by a coworker who lives on the lake, 6-8" of ice, little to no snow cover (thanks to Tuesdays rain), and no idea if Causeway is open or not. If you're headed up that way, look for me and my fishing partner. Ill be in a red Eskimo flip over, and he'll be in a blue Clam 2000... Last time I parked at Goreskis, it was $10 for parking...

Causeway bait is open, and everything else CB said is on the money. Haven't seen or heard of many bluegills yet. I have my own theories i will be testing out this aft. Best of luck!

Fishing this afternoon/evening was quite slow, think it was because of the dropping temps. Ended up getting a huge 4lb oos smallmouth and some small perch and a bluegill, no crappie. Others i talked to only got a couple crappie if any at all. Cheers
