This evening I was targeting walleyes after work. Wednesday I had driven by the dam and was quite surprised to see fisherman on the ice. This has to be one of the earliest dates that we have had fishable ice below the dam.
Walking out to the short wall on clear two or three inches of ice is quite and experience below the dam. You can look down and see bubbles steaming by on the bottom side of the ice. You know that if you are unfortunate enough to go through here that you will be a goner.
The bite was typical for me, I caught fish right at dark; nothing before and nothing after!
