Got out today for the first ice fishing of the season and had fun.
Ice is a good solid 4 inches and that's plenty to walk on but I need 12-14 inches before I drive on..lol
Anyways got my limit of 5 rainbows,not big ones but good pansize ones.
A forage minnow jig

tipped with kernel corn was the ticket today..

It's already been a long winter and we have only just started. Nice fish, 4" of ice? OK, a couple of feet thick and maybe I think about it.

Cool, fresh frozen trout. I was going to do some drag racing on the ice once. Thank God I sobered up in time.

lol...I'm guessing you guys don't watch Ice Road Truckers..
4 inches of clear ice will easily hold you.But I must admit I once walked a D8 Cat across 34 inches and that freaked me out a bit.
In the end all was good..
Have fun on the ice but play safe everyone..
