that's one thing i have to really work on with ice fishing is patients and presentation. it's always been hard for me because ya know i want to get into the fish right away.
it's a lot different for me when fishing in open water, there i seem to have more patients. but im slowely getting out ice fishing more and more.
what do you think would be a good depth?
i dont know about this idea, but there is this bridge and in the summer i pulled so many bass out from under it and the water max there was probobly about 8 feet and its back kind of in a bay and then out in the bigger part of the lake it gets up to 60.
there is a section where the water is about 20 to 40 and there is some structure there. old trees and some brush. i ice fished there last winter with not much luck at all, except the water in the winter seems to be a lot more clear and we could see a ways down. also in the summer there, the bass fishing in the deeper water has been tuff there by those trees ect.
