[QUOTE="shorthairsrus, post: 237673, member: 219"] I see all these guys on FB ---they have picks of ice holes, flashers, walking one etc, ice houses, hell somebody drove on Detroit lake --- but no fish!!!! Maybe i seen one fish and that looked like last year. You know i have a shorthair -- and back when we had a hell of a nino -- the water stayed open the beginning of January on a lake i have fished for years. I came early in the am - 2nd weekend of january -- didnt even bat an eye at the ice - drilled and i had 10 inches of ice. When the sun came up -- i could see that damn lake still was open on the one side - if it was water fowl or what i wasnt sure. Never has been open like that afterword or before that i can remember. Anyway my shorthair would run over and drink water --- i was like get the hell out. Next she pulled the stunt of jumping in and having some fun swimming - you know what kind of a acrobat they are -- she made some wierd moves and the next thing she pops up and gets on the ice and does it again like a little kid. Bottom line - unless if you are a canine and your breed is a german shorthair -if your anything else you have no business out on a lake this early IMO. Specially if the lake is snow covered like alot of them are. IMO fish wont bite good right directly before or after ice or ice out. --- give it another week different story. [/QUOTE]
