Great information. If I was inclined to fish on the ice, I could use it.
Don't know why, but the ice scares me.

This article is chock full of info and well written. Although I'll never fish hard water, it is informative.

Very good article Nathan.....would love to fish together sometime. Your ice fishing crappie knowledge would really help on my home lake. It is full of shad and the crappies this year have really shown their liking to them. But when targeting them last winter, I did best with micro jigs and plastic. Go figure! Anyways....great reading and thanks for sharing!

No hard water in Southern Cali, but a well written article

Here in the north east, we frequently find both a minnow pattern and a lava pattern going on in different parts of a water body. Water temps have dropped into the low 40s and the fish are schooled tight and feeding heavy.
