11℉, Cloudy, 5-13mph SSW WNW
I would have liked to have gotten out sooner, but whatchagonna do, I wanted to go to Onamia. I did not look at the wind direction forecast, figuring it would stay the same. I drove out and parked North of the past couple of times I went out and parked to block the wind out of the SSW. The ice has to be 18-20". I drilled my set and got set up. I was marking fish slightly higher than normal. I put down a switch and missed a couple of bites. I then put down the camera and spotted numerous crappies. I couldn't get the top of the bobber onto the Aqua-Vu cord, eventually I gave up. I got a minnow down and got bit quickly. Same thing on my next drop with the same minnow. I put the same minnow down a third time. The fish moved off for 5 minutes, and I caught a couple of the Wonder Bread Switch when they came back. I put a new minnow on. I caught fish on both, with more on the Glow Demon Minnow. Wind switched out of the WNW. The light level under the water and in the fish house went down. I put those rechargeable lights up and wasn't impressed with them when it was still light outside. My feet were getting cold, and I didn't feel like drilling new holes, so I called it a night at 5:30. There was one truck on the ice. The crappies tonight were 9/10ish except the last one, which was 8."
