Today was my day off during the week, and I intended to take full advantage of it. In a quick summary the fishing was good. There were plenty of bluegills to be caught and I did catch two giant bass. I did notice since last Sunday that the fishing pressure has definitely picked-up! Last Sunday we had maybe six people sharing the ice with us, but today we had probably two-hundred keeping me company.
I was lucky enough to watch a deer cross the ice from the main land over to Rosebud Island. It did run, but it did so in a very cautious manner.
