Fished this am, 7:30-11:30 My friend and I went straight to our "honey hole". nothing, not even a bite. Tried two other places that had been productive, nothing. Another cove, one bite. We're discouraged, decided the crappie bite was over and will troll for walleye next time we go. Will try one more cove. Caught 13, three were 13" rest were 11" and 12" Confused Why were the other places dead? But this one hotter than ever been. Tried two more places-nothing, so we quit.

Tried the 1" Berkley Gulp! minnow for the 1st time. Both the crappie and the bluegill ate it up, but it needs to be rigged on a very small jig like 1/64. We caught several 8" bluegill today and have been routinely, while targeting crappie.

They were and have been, hitting the 1 1/2" bass assasin and the short ice fishing jigs.

We fished between Waitsboro and the mouth of White Oak, main lake, and fished 25' deep, at least.

For you fishermen coming for the 4th, ask others about using live minnows and night fishing. I'm clueless. and I haven't caught a walleye this year.

have fun and be safe
fair weather
