Bluegill Hitting Hard At Horseshoe Pond



Went out ice fishing today for a couple of hours. Decided to try one of my favorite spots Horseshoe Pond. Moved around 3 times and then I found them. Pulled a few hundred gills through the ice and kept a nice pile of thick ones. Released 5 to every keeper. Bite was strong and furious. Front moving through and fish were aggressive. Used ultra light tackle with yellow teardrop ice jig tipped with maggots. Fish were in about 10ft of water. Ice was a little scary, about 4 1/2 inches. Soft layer on top, with about 3-4 good inches of good ice. Hope this holds for next weekend. Looks to be warm tomorrow with colder temps arriving in a few days.
