Minnesota angler Rick Konakowitz couldn’t quite tell what he had on the end of his line. He was ice fishing for crappie and walleye last Wednesday at Clear Lake, near the town of New Ulm. Konakowitz says he had already caught at least one crappie—when he says another fish struck his Glow Devil lure. Konakowitz was surprised by the fish’s bright yellow hue when he brought it to the surface.
This isn't me, but check this out.

Yea, for safety they have to get the houses off the lakesTook up ice fishing for the first time this year. Loved it, but was disappointed that the season was so short. From what I understand a more normal temperature year allows you to fish into March.
Ice where we fished last weekend was about 24 inches. The ice sheet is good. Just need the temps to get back to normal. Then we can keep fishing for a while yet.Yea, for safety they have to get the houses off the lakes

Power auger, sunflower heater, portable house, homemade summer sausage and beer.It's been years since I've been. Much more sophisticated now as I undrerstand it. I remember 50 years ago freezing my ass off on Red Willow lake (Hugh Butler) with a hand aguer and no shelter spending the day trying to haul in..........anyting. LOL.
