Northeast whities and ice report. 9km walking

Got an early start yesterday about 645 am. First I walked west, really really far west. No fish. Then I walked south found no takers, then east and still no takers. Then I walked north and still the whities had lock jaw. Walked a total of 9 km in depths from 14 to 30 Fow. Seen about 8 fish on the finder and only 1 showed any interest ( chased a vabrato off bottom but would not take the bait). The day ended with 1 fish between three guys fishing hard. Ice condition did not make for easy walking in a lot of the area. It looked like ice was dropped from the sky and froze on impact. I'm feeling mighty sore, lol. Had to pass 3 major cracks that had soft ice on top then 3 inches of water and good ice (as far as I could tell)under that. Ice was between 7-9 inches in the holes I punched. It was good day other than the lock jaw on the whities.

That is a lot of walking Mmm. It's amazing how much being geared up to stay warm, heavy boots and a load of ice fishing gear really wears on you. At least we have that ice to walk 9km on. I tried Kemp last Sunday with my son and after some massive ice quakes that almost led to the need for new pants we left fishless as well.

good effort,but you might be a tad shallow right now

Yeah I’ve been told it’s a later season area but we figured we would check the ice there rather than venture across the lake.
