Fishing report January 9 2009

Been a couple of days since the last ice trip out and really had to get out and wet a line as the ice fishing bug has bitten and the fever is running wild. Cold temps and high winds were in store as I departed for the lake. Wanted to go and try a different pond but being I only had a couple of hours to fish decided to go back to the pond I was at last time.

Since the last trip out we have had some snow with a day of rain as well and the ice surface conditions were very slick and flat. One good thing about that is we are gaining more ice and this is definitely helping as there is now 5 inches of frozen snow and a few inches of clear black ice. The ice uniformity is getting better and all of the holes that I had drilled were fairly close in thickness between all of them.
